What happens when Christianity disappears from public life—not for decades, but for centuries?
In this episode, we trace the unbelievable true story of the Kakure Kirishitan—Japan’s “Hidden Christians”—who kept their faith alive underground after brutal crackdowns in the 17th century. Without pastors, Bibles, or sacraments, they adapted, improvised, and endured. But what was preserved? And what was lost?
We’ll explore:
The rise and fall of Catholic missions in Japan
The fumie: an image of Christ used to trample out faith
How liturgy became folklore—and why theology drifted
What happened when the Church finally returned
And what this haunting story reveals about the gospel, the Spirit, and the danger of isolation
This isn’t just history. It’s a warning—and a mirror.
Let me know in the comments: What would your faith look like without community, Scripture, or structure?
