About

I'm Keith Little, a non-denominational evangelical convert to Catholicism. I create podcasts about the Catholic faith geared towards helping non-Catholics and new Catholics understand Catholicism–but all Catholics can learn something here. On the podcast, I try to find influential Catholic thinkers to talk about Catholic topics from the heart of the Catholic Church.

Video Description

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, for our 200th episode of the podcast, I'm joined by Catholic Answers Senior Apologist Jimmy Akin to share some of the reasons why the Protestant doctrine of Sola Scriptura is problematic – and what a reasonable alternative, in the Catholic Church, may be! For me, as an Evangelical struggling with divisions over the interpretation of Scripture within my own faith communities, the very bedrock of my faith – the Bible as the sole, infallible rule of faith – became a real point of concern. Could this really be what Christ envisioned for his Church? Jimmy shares some of his concerns, answers some of mine, and explains why even the most innovative and modern formulations of Sola Scriptura, from the top Evangelical apologists, fail some pretty basic tests.
