Church in Crisis (Part 8): 2nd, 3rd, & 4th Lateran Councils w/ Dr. Alan Fimister

About this sermon

The seventh installment of The Church in Crisis follows Dr. Alan Fimister as he examines the First Lateran Council (1123 A.D.), the beginning of an extraordinary era in Catholic history known as the High Middle Ages. This lecture explores how the Gregorian Reform transformed medieval Christendom, the rise of universities, canon law, papal authority, the Crusades, the Investiture Controversy, and the remarkable flowering of Catholic civilization that culminated in the great Lateran Councils. Dr. Fimister also explains: • Why ecumenical councils differ in authority and purpose • The importance of the First, Second, Third, and Fourth Lateran Councils • The High Middle Ages as the pinnacle of medieval Catholic civilization • The Investiture Controversy and papal reform • The origins of medieval universities • The Crusades and their historical context • Frederick Barbarossa and the struggle between Empire and Papacy • The Cathar heresy and the response of St. Dominic and St. Francis • Innocent III and the Fourth Lateran Council • Transubstantiation, annual confession, Easter Communion, and major reforms This series provides a thorough historical study of the ecumenical councils and the development of Catholic doctrine, discipline, and Christendom.
