The Bishop of Rome - Can we find a way forward for unity?

Recently, the Vatican's Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity released a study document titled, "The Bishop of Rome." In it, they discuss the last century of ecumenical dialogue's and the last two millennia of agreement and disagreement on the role of the bishop of Rome.

In this video, I highlight a few key parts of the new document and share my thoughts on how the divided churches can continue to make progress on this difficult doctrine of the primacy of the pope and what an amenable explanation and exercise of this office might look like.

About Gospel Simplicity:
Gospel Simplicity began as a YouTube channel in a Moody Bible Institute dorm. It was born out of the central conviction that the gospel is really good news, and I wanted to share that with as many people as possible. The channel has grown and changed over time, but that central conviction has never changed. Today, we make content around biblical and theological topics, often interacting with people from across the Christian tradition with the hope of seeking greater unity and introducing people to the beautiful simplicity and transformative power of the gospel, the good news about Jesus.
