Are Protestants Afraid of the Canon? | Responding to Catholic Truth | Weighed in the Balance Ep. 7

Send us a text

In this episode, Jonathan Brooks is joined by cohosts Josh Goodwin and Alex Lott to respond to a recent video from the Catholic Truth channel (watch it here). The original video claims that Protestants avoid discussing the biblical canon and that, lacking infallible certainty, they cannot truly know what belongs in Scripture.

Josh Goodwin, who holds a bachelor’s degree in philosophy, brings a philosophical lens to the discussion—highlighting the epistemological flaws in Catholic Truth's argument. Together, we critically engage with the claims made, but we don’t stop at rebuttals. We also begin building the positive case from a Reformed Protestant perspective: How do we know what belongs in the canon of Scripture?

Whether you're Protestant, Catholic, or just curious about the canon debate, this conversation aims to be thoughtful, respectful, and grounded in theology, philosophy, and history.
