At this point, people really should have learned to stop making up new ideas about Jesus' nature. But some people never learn. 

This week, we end up with Eutychianism, an overcorrection of the heresy of Nestorianism. This one suggested, "What if Jesus' two natures were just kind of, like, blended together into one?" 

We'll break down why that's problematic, but also how this particular issue broke a lot of church unity...and why that may not have been a bad thing...
