THIS WEEK’S PODCASTS
This week on Theologically Thinking, Fr. Bill Chiganos reminds us as we begin Great Lent that we are on a journey but in order to reach our destination we need a plan on how to get there to reach our goal. In this week's episode of Special Moments in Orthodoxy, Bishop Kallilstos Ware speaks to us from St. John Greek Orthodox Church in Sterling Heights Michigan on preparing ourselves for Great Lent. This week on Harmony of Thunder: Every now and then, one comes across a sermon that has something genuinely surprising in it. On this week's Harmony of Thunder, Fr. David looks at a sermon of St. Gregory Palamas that has an unexpected point to make. This is a program you will not want to miss! This week The Chanter's Stand features the group Eikona. This group consists of three sisters who grew up in Denver, Colorado, attending Assumption Greek Orthodox Cathedral. While we are created in the image of God, it is the patient and consistent striving throughout life that brings us closer and closer to Christ, to make our lives a witness and true image of God. The group chose the name, Eikona, in order to set before them the goal of growing in the Image of the Living God through their music.
