East-West Divide

The subject of the 5th video in our series on Church history is the divide between the Eastern and Western Churches that was cemented in 1054 over the Filioque controversy. However, there were a number of factors that led to the split between the two branches of the Church. Join us as we trace 5 threads that lead to and cemented the divide. The threads are: the rise of the Papacy, the threat of Islam, the crowning of Charlemagne, the question of the Holy Spirit, and the final Crusade.
