036: What's Up With All of These Different Denominations?

It doesn't take long to realize that there are literally hundreds of different churches inside of one city–Methodist, Baptist, Lutheran, Wesleyan, Christian, Brethren, Church of God, Church of Christ, Church of God in Christ, etc. But this isn't even the best part. The best part? There's different types of churches inside each denomination! Some have estimated that there are well over 200 different distinct Christian groups inside Protestantism. On the episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller discuss how we got these denominations, why it even matters, and ultimately, should it matter? There are some disagreements between the guys on this episode, which resulted in a very long, passionate conversation.   Resources for you to learn more about the various theological topics that separate Protestant Churches: Different ways churches view sanctification: https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/essay/models-of-sanctification/ Different ways churches view communion/Lord's Supper/Eucharist: https://simplyputpodcast.com/four-views-of-the-lords-supper/ Different ways churches view salvation:https://www.gotquestions.org/Calvinism-vs-Arminianism.html Different ways churches view baptism: https://www.equip.org/article/baptism-theology/   Friends of RTC: Paul Lindgren: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1kiadclDcNpa2YdT6zCdP9?si=zl34-6caQG-Zh9yU0OhM0A Abba Father Podcast: http://abbafather.buzzsprout.com Dudes and Dads Podcast: http://dudesanddadspodcast.com John Tibbs: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4Wm66SItUBLYFqJq03WH6d?si=VOFNd6eRSKy5xvuYylWcBA   Helpful links: Got Questions?: https://www.gotquestions.org Dwell Bible App: https://dwellapp.io Cross Formed Kids from Ryan Coatney: https://crossformedkids.com Listen on your favorite podcast platform: https://linktr.ee/realtalkchristianpodcast   Music used on RTC: Opening Song: "Joy" by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/3VcYVaixPlAS1KDVgYo1Dy?si=TqSXguuVQNudJrkcRDDjIA Closing Song: "Adjust" by Paul Lindgren https://open.spotify.com/track/16VMY0XxHDo0bLpp6dQpuc?si=a1khJqYTTtWyzeQEbtYGXg
