Judas Within: "Shipwreck in the faith is frequent" (St. Basil) | Ep. 57
Episode 57
Tuesday, 20 January, 2026
CULTIVATING SAINTS, SAGES, AND STATESMEN THROUGH THE GREAT TRADITION OF CHRISTENDOMIn this "Judas within" episode, we cover a letter from the great eastern Church Father, St. Basil, that laments scandals within the Church in the late 300's. It could have been written yesterday, and thus we hope it is a source of consolation amidst any difficult time in the Church. Such difficulties are "one-niners" (Ecclesiastes 1:9, "nothing new under the sun").This is the first of what will be many more "mini-episodes" (around 10 minutes or less) we will now release on a regular basis. Some weeks will have single longer episodes, and some will have multiple "mini-episodes," covering amazing stories and evidence of Catholic belief in the ancient Church. There are so many nuggets to share, and these "mini-episodes" will allow us to share them with you more quickly. Another one will come out later this week on the papacy!VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONAs a non-profit, you can support our mission with a tax-deductible gift.
