THIS WEEK FROM THE ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN NETWORK
COME RECEIVE THE LIGHT - THE NATIONALLY SYNDICATED RADIO PROGRAM OF ORTHODOX CHRISTIANITY
During Lent, many of us grow closer to Christ, His Church and to one another, but that progress is quickly lost as we return to our “real lives.” Let Fr. Steven Ritter offer you some suggestions and encouragement on how to continue walking towards our Risen Lord. Plus, this week we start our exploration of Christ in the 4 Gospels with Dr. George Parsenios, beginning with the Gospel of Mark! Click here to listen to the first interview with Dr. Parsenios on the similarities and differences within the 4 Gospels.

OCN PODCASTS
On Special Moment of Orthodoxy, Fr. Christopher Metropulos had an opportunity to sit with His Excellency Metropolitan Kallistos Ware to discuss the recent Gallop poll which asks American's to answer the question, "What are the most important issues that cause you concern today? The Metropolitan states at one point during the interview “God does not watch us from a distance, our Lord shares our anxieties and fears." On Theologically Thinking, Fr. William Chiganos shares his thoughts on Mother’s Day and ponders whether we hear kind words.
