Church history is full of inspiring stories of grace, love that knows no bounds, and even the miraculous. It is also full of stories of flawed people doing strange things for often misguided reasons. This week Gage teaches DJ about one such story: the Cadaver Synod. The Cadaver Synod refers to a time in history when an active Pope dug up a previous pope and put him on trial for crimes against the Catholic Church. It has gone down in history as a perplexing moment on its own, but is surrounded by political intrigue, church divisions, and moments of faith. 01:25 - Introduction 03:36 - Historical Context 29:52 - The Cadaver Synod33:11 - Aftermath 40:23 - Related Conversations 53:10 - ConclusionIf you enjoyed this story, let us know and subscribe so you can hear more like it.
