Episode 21 | Gnosticism: An Age-Old Heresy

Gnosticism is hard to define, but its principles have been deceiving people since the first century. Heresy may not be something you’ve studied in your life, but the truth is that Gnosticism and its principles still permeate our culture today – just in ways you don’t see. This episode will explain Gnosticism and how it threatens Christians today. Tune in to hear how false doctrine could be permeating your worldview and how to combat it!
