Church HistorySteve Gregg
In this third installment of a lecture series on the Middle Ages, Steve Gregg discusses the rise of the Roman Catholic Church and the contrast between it and the Eastern Orthodox and Protestant churches. Gregg delves into the origins of the Inquisition, which began as a means to persecute the Cathars and Albigenzis, and how heretics were treated throughout history. He also examines the influence of monasticism, the contributions of famous scholastic Thomas Aquinas, and the role of mystics in emphasizing personal experiences with God. Gregg concludes with a discussion on how the Renaissance and Reformation ushered in new religious thought and movements outside of the institutional church.
