  • Does the Bible Teach ‘Bible Alone’? | The Catholic Case Against Sola Scriptura
    Why do Catholics say “Bible and Tradition” when so many Christians insist on “Bible Alone”? Episode 3 of Martyr Mentality dives straight into the centuries-old debate over where ultimate Christian authority really lives. Abbot Ankido Sipo and Br. Augustine Joseph trace the battle lines from the 16th-century Reformers to today’s TikTok theologians, unpacking why the early Church, the canon of Scripture, and the lived teaching office (magisterium) can’t be separated without tearing the Gospel in two. 00:00 Introduction and Personal Anecdote 00:19 Catholic Beliefs and Practices 01:33 Protestant Reformation and Its Impact 05:17 Scripture vs. Tradition 09:14 The Role of the Church in Interpreting Scripture 13:49 Living the Faith: Actions and Beliefs 25:21 The Individual vs. the Community in Faith 29:30 The Role of the Church in Interpreting Scripture 31:45 Authority and Fallibility in Church Leadership 36:22 The Role of the Pope and Bishops 40:01 The Necessity of Humility and Faith 48:40 Concluding Thoughts on Faith and Truth SUBSCRIBE • SHARE If this episode helped you see the Bible-Tradition debate in a new light, hit Subscribe, so you never miss an upload.

  • Christianity Invented ‘Person’—Here’s Why You’re More Than Biology
    A “person” wasn’t always what you think it is. In ancient Greek drama "prosopon" meant a stage mask—but early Christians hijacked the word to solve the biggest question of their age: Who exactly is Jesus? That theological breakthrough still shapes every debate about human dignity, soul vs. body, AI consciousness, and why you’re infinitely more than a bundle of atoms. Abbot Ankido (Chaldean Catholic priest & monk) sits down with Fr. Daniel (Chaldean Catholic priest & Canonist) to trace the idea of personhood from Aristotle to Genesis to modern Canon Law—then asks what it means for your daily fight with pleasure, perfectionism, and self-worth. What you’ll learn: Why Christianity “invented” the modern idea of personhood How Aristotle’s “rational soul” meets the Book of Genesis’ “image of God” Why breaking God’s image in yourself (sin) doesn’t make Him love you less—but does demand restoration Canon Law’s 3-step path to rebuild scandal: reform the offender, restore justice, repair the wound   Timestamps: 00:00 Intro and Concept of Human Dignity 01:25 Greek Origins of 'Person' 07:35 Aristotle's Ethics and Rational Soul 14:16 Christianity and Human Dignity 17:54 The Freedom to Choose and Christ's Salvation 19:46 Confession and the Restoration of God's Image 21:04 Sanctions and Justice in the Church 23:55 Forgiveness and Self-Healing 28:31 The Dignity of the Human Person 33:30 Perseverance and Glorifying God 📺 Subscribe for weekly clips & full episodes 🎥 Prefer video?

  • Scrupulosity vs Lukewarm Faith: Catholic Priests Reveal the Path to Freedom
    Are you trapped between crippling scrupulosity and a “meh, God will understand” lukewarm faith? In this premiere of Martyr Mentality, Chaldean Catholic priests Fr. Ankido Sipo and Fr. Simon Esshaki break down the two spiritual extremes that sabotage a healthy relationship with Christ—and map out a realistic path to freedom, joy, and authentic love. In this conversation you’ll learn: Scrupulosity magnifies “little specks of dirt” into mountains and breeds anxiety. Lukewarm presumption ignores God’s law and dulls the soul. True balance = filial fear + child-like trust. “Be perfect” (Greek τέλειοι) means complete in love, not flawless performance. Good works are Christ working through you—never a DIY salvation plan. Key quote: “The Christian life is finding my identity inside God’s love—everything else flows from that center.” Connect & Grow • Subscribe and leave a review—it helps other seekers find the show. • Join the #MartyrMindset conversation on social media: click here
