Conversion, Scripture, and Jubilee with Dr. John Bergsma
1h 15m
In this week’s episode, John welcomes Dr. John Bergsma—convert, theologian, and professor at Franciscan University of Steubenville—for a rich conversation on faith, scripture, and the Church’s 2025 Jubilee Year.
Dr. Bergsma shares his journey from Protestant pastor to Catholic scholar, and how reading the Bible deeply led him not away from the Church, but straight into it. Together, he and John unpack the meaning of Jubilee, not as a dusty Old Testament tradition, but as a living call to forgiveness, freedom, and restoration.
If you’ve ever wrestled with the tension between scripture and tradition—or if you’re ready for a deeper understanding of how the Church invites us into hope—this one’s for you.
