February 2012 Theme - Faith and Politics



Faith of the Apostles and Modern Politics - February 2012

From the desk of Father Chris Metropulos, Executive Director of the Orthodox Christian Network

Dear Blessed people of God,

We are now entering the month of February and everyone knows what that means; campaigns and primaries. You are probably asking yourself, Oh Father are you really going to deal with politics? It is probably better if you didn't. Well my dear friends believe it or not we do  have something to say about it and we should.

If you have ever attended an Orthodox Christian Divine Liturgy, you know that we pray for the President of the United States, not the Republican or Democratic President but THE PRESIDENT.  We also pray for our leaders to govern in peace so that we might live lives in piety and holiness.  So, if St. John Chrysostom can raise the issue we felt it was safe for us to do it as well.   

 
Politics, Faith and Integrity

Gov Michael Dukakis shares his thoughts on how personal faith and integrity affect a politician’s professional life. Plus, many of us know about the amazing work that IOCC does around the globe, but tune in to hear about their new plan for domestic crises. For more information on the IOCC, visit http://www.iocc.org/ or call their office at (410) 243-9820.

Is the Apocalypse Really Approaching? - January 2012

From the desk of Father Chris Metropulos, Executive Director of the Orthodox Christian Network

Here we go again. The predictions are back stronger than ever and this time with a movie to boot about the Apocalypse. But I must confess to you I am thrilled to finally be doing such interviews on CRTL because I am so tired of hearing all of the carnival barkers talk about the End Times when they really have no idea what they are talking about.

What does the Orthodox Christian Faith teach about the End Times, End of the World, the Apocalypse?  What about Sts. Paul, John Chrysostom and the Disciples of Christ?  What did they have to say?  What about the Mayan Calendar? Is it something we should be using to predict and declare December 21, 2012 as the end of the world as we know it?  

 
Climate changes, pollution and making our world unlivable

In our final episode on the Apocalypse, Fred Krueger talk about climate changes and other environmental problems that might lead to mankind’s extinction. To learn more, visit http://www.orth-transfiguration.org/. But first, the ancient Mayan Calendar is set to run out this December. Had they figured out when the world would end? Ian O’Neill, a solar physicist who’s the Space Science Producer for Discovery News, is here to help us make some sense of it.
