In this episode, Isaac Bisbee explores one of the most controversial and misunderstood roles in Christian history: The Papacy. Drawing from Scripture, covenant theology, and the witness of the early Church, this episode reframes the Pope not as a medieval monarch, but as the royal steward of Christ’s kingdom. From Peter’s keys to Jerome’s submission, Isaac traces six reasons the Church still needs the Roman bishop—and why the papacy is not a corruption of Christianity, but its structural fulfillment.
