#68 - Sacramentals, Relics, and Apostolic Succession

Why Catholic?

About this episode

When the Church Fathers said that the true Church was one, holy, Catholic, and Apostolic, what did they mean by the word Apostolic? Did it mean just that the True Church followed the teachings of the Apostles, or was it something much bigger. In this episode, Justin Hibbard continues the series on the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church by examining the meaning and significance of the word “Apostolic.” How can sacramentals, relics, and physical touch shed light on the importance of Apostolic succession?
