This episode challenges the popular claim that the Catholic Church “kept the Bible from the people,” arguing instead for a consistent pattern of access with fidelity. What if the usual narrative is missing something essential? Today we explore how access and authority relate, and why it matters more than ever, from the Vulgate’s vernacular origins, to William Tyndale, to a modern case study on why translation needs guardrails.

An exploration of how language can drift from reality, and what happens when words keep their sound but lose their substance. Even tiny redefinitions can alter our thinking, our life together, and even our sense of right and wrong. The question then becomes: what keeps language, and by proxy us, anchored to reality?

Church-hopping is normal, disagreements are constant, and authority often feels optional. In this episode, we ask: does Protestant life today actually look like Sola Scriptura—or has it always been Solo in disguise?
