Marshmallows by the Hellfire
by Gabriel
Does today's brand of bland feel-good theology got you down? Do you feel that wrestling with tough topics head on leads to more authentic peace than ignoring them? Then, wretched sinner, this is the Podcast for you! We will explore salvation, damnation, grace, predestination, the culture wars, and all the other topics not allowed in feel-good Catholicism - and have ourselves a joyful time doing it. So come, grab your Bible (and maybe even a copy of the Divine Comedy) and bring some marshmallows to toast by the hellfire.
