This week we speak with Newley ordained priest for the Diocese of Parramatta, Fr Matthew Dimian about the fabulous topic of the Church's teaching authority, also known as the Magisterium of the Church. He dives deep into the scriptural and early Church foundation for the Church's teaching power on earth, touching on the authority of the Pope and Bishops. This is such an important topic, and can even be considered the very foundation of why we may believe in Christ altogether! Fr Matthew will leave you assured of Christ's promise to be with us until the end of the age, and invigorate your confidence in the teaching power of the Church despite the rough times we have endured in the past or are being challenged with in our present time, you will be quipped with the practical tools for your faith and being faithful in our age.
