The Least of These Podcast with Jayni Jackson

The recent SSPX controversy has sparked one of the biggest conversations in the Catholic world in years, but I believe there is a much deeper question hiding beneath the headlines that almost everyone is overlooking. In this video, I take a careful look at what is happening and explain why this controversy raises an issue that every Catholic, Protestant, and anyone interested in Christian authorit...

Luke 22 is often presented as one of the strongest biblical arguments for the papacy—but does it actually establish papal supremacy? After a recent conversation with Joe Heschmeyer, I found myself revisiting the passage and wrestling with a distinction that I think changes the entire discussion. What if Peter’s prominence is undeniable, yet still not enough to get where Rome needs it to go?

Joe Heschmeyer and I sat down to discuss one of the biggest claims in Christianity: the papacy. Tune in to see how this conversation goes!!

Protestants are often quick to point out the weaknesses they see in Catholicism and Orthodoxy—but what if there’s a weakness within Protestantism that we need to confront first? In this video, I challenge my fellow Protestants to consider a different way of responding to criticism that I believe is not only healthier, but more consistent with the spirit of the Reformation itself.

If a doctrine isn’t true unless the exact phrase appears in Scripture, then a lot more than Sola Scriptura may be in trouble. In this video, I explore one of the most frustrating arguments I encounter in apologetics and why I believe it creates more confusion than clarity. The real question isn’t whether a particular word appears in the text—it’s whether we’re being consistent in how we handle Scr...

In this video, I explore a question that has continued to bother me as I’ve studied Catholic and Orthodox claims about Sacred Tradition. If Sacred Tradition is a fixed apostolic deposit that Christians are expected to believe, how is the ordinary believer supposed to identify its contents today? Join me as I walk through why this question remains one of the biggest reasons I continue struggling wi...

For years, Christians have been told that Protestants simply misunderstand what Orthodoxy teaches about salvation. But when two of the internet’s most recognizable voices in  @TruthUnites  and  @JonathanPageau  finally sit down face-to-face, some surprisingly direct questions begin to expose just how deep the disagreement really goes. In this video, we slow everything down and examine what was act...

A recent conversation between Dr. John Bergsma from the  @StPaulCenter  and  @pintswithaquinas  took an interesting turn when the topic of Sola Scriptura came up. In this video, I respond to four moments that stood out, not because they destroyed the Protestant position, but because they may have revealed more than intended. If you’ve ever wondered why Protestants keep pressing the question of Scr...

​  @shamelesspopery  said something in Pope Peter that genuinely made me stop and think. As a Protestant, I expected to disagree with much of the book, but one observation from the very first chapter forced me to look at the Catholic-Protestant debate from a different angle. In this video, I explore why the question of the papacy is far bigger than most people realize, why so many Christians care...

A recent video on Eucharistic miracles by  @truthlyTV  raises a much bigger question than most people realize. If these miracles prove what many Catholics and Orthodox claim they prove, what are the theological implications that follow from that conclusion? In this video, we examine the biblical, logical, and theological tensions that emerge when we follow the argument all the way to its natural c...

This video isn’t about debating 2 Thessalonians 2:15 or whether oral apostolic tradition existed. Instead, I ask a much simpler question: if Sacred Tradition was eventually written down, preserved in documents, and treated as infallible, what functionally distinguishes it from Scripture? Join me as we explore the irony of oral tradition and the one question I believe Catholics and Orthodox still n...

I recently watched a Protestant critique of Catholicism that left me cringing—but probably not for the reason you think. In this video, I examine several statements from a panel discussion featuring @jeremyboreing, @AllieBethStuckey, @CrossExamined, and David Limbaugh and ask an important question: Are we accurately representing what Catholics actually believe? Whether you’re Protestant, Catholic,...

What happens when a Catholic priest says the quiet part out loud? In a recent conversation between @TruthUnites and @fathergregorypine of @AscensionPresents, two comments stood out to me that I think get right to the heart of why Catholics and Protestants often talk past each other. In this video, we’ll examine those moments and explore what they reveal about authority, tradition, and the real dis...

Recently,  @BrianHoldsworth  responded to  @TruthUnites  ’s argument against the Roman Catholic view of authority. At first, his response sounds compelling—but the deeper I looked, the more problems I found. In this video, we’ll examine whether Brian actually answered Gavin’s argument or unintentionally made it even stronger.

​  @shamelesspopery  argues that disagreement among Christians proves Scripture is not sufficient as the Church’s rule of faith. But does that conclusion actually follow logically… or biblically? In this video, we examine why disagreement does not invalidate Scripture’s sufficiency, how Jesus Himself handled interpretive disputes, and why this common Catholic/Orthodox argument ultimately proves fa...

One of the most common objections to Calvinism is the warning passages in Scripture… but what if Acts 27 gives us the biblical framework for understanding them correctly? In this video, we’re gonna walk through why warnings and eternal security are not actually in conflict at all.

​  @TheCounselofTrent  made a statement during a debate with  @AominOrg  eternal security that at first sounded subtle… but the more I thought about it, the more I realized it creates a massive problem for one of the most common Catholic critiques of Calvinism. And honestly, once you see the implications, it completely changes the conversation surrounding warning passages, perseverance, and the co...

​  @TheCounselofTrent  responded to Ryan from  @NeedGodnet  but in this video I argue that Trent’s entire framework for justification begins collapsing under its own weight. We’ll look at how Trent’s distinction between “initial” and “final” justification creates serious tension with Paul’s teaching in Romans 4 and Ephesians 2, and how later in the same video he appears to contradict his own categ...

In this video, I respond to  @MilitantThomist  attempt to “solve” what I’ve called the Berean Dilemma in Acts 17, where the Bereans are called noble for testing even an apostle by Scripture. The argument claims this kind of testing only applies before conversion, and that once you’ve identified the “true Church,” you’re no longer supposed to examine its teachings. But does the Bible actually teach...

Ruslan recently had a fascinating discussion with an Orthodox Christian about James 5, confession, absolution, priests, and apostolic succession, and the deeper the conversation went, the more interesting the implications became. In this video, we slow the discussion down and examine some of the assumptions both sides may have been bringing into the text. Did James 5 actually teach what was being...

One of the biggest reasons many people leave Protestantism for Catholicism or Orthodoxy is because they’re tired of interpretive chaos. They want certainty, clarity, and an authority structure they can trust. But what if the very argument used against Sola Scriptura creates the exact same problem it claims to solve? In this video, we take a careful look at one of the most common critiques of Sola...

In this video, I break down the growing controversy surrounding Candace Owens’ recent confirmation in the Catholic Church and why so many Christians, including Catholics themselves, are raising serious concerns about repentance, public witness, and celebrity culture in the church. More importantly, we look at what First Epistle to the Corinthians chapter 5 teaches about accountability, scandal, an...

In this video, I respond to  @BrianHoldsworth  's claim that you have to be “smart enough” to be Protestant and examine whether Protestantism really makes Christianity inaccessible to the average person. We’ll look at the difference between the gospel itself and secondary theological issues, whether Catholicism actually removes the burden of discernment, and why reach and apparent unity do not...

This is one of the most common—and most quickly dismissed—questions in conversations between Protestants, Catholics, and Orthodox Christians: do Catholics and Orthodox actually worship Mary? In this video, I’m not here to misrepresent anyone, but to walk through this issue carefully, biblically, and honestly by asking a deeper question—what does Scripture actually define as worship? Because the is...

Why do conversations about Mary so often feel like we’re missing each other? In this video, we take a closer look at one of the most discussed biblical connections and ask a deeper question: not just what the Bible shows—but how far we’re meant to go with it. Instead of assuming disagreement, we slow things down and examine where common ground actually exists—and where things begin to diverge. If...
