OCN PODCASTS
On Theologically Thinking, Fr. Athanasios Haros of the Transfiguration of Our Savior Greek Orthodox Church in Florence, South Caroline “offers his sermon on “The Healing Touch of God.” Ever since the creation of humanity by God, we have held a special relationship with our Creator. God granted us His touch when He created us in the Garden and He has given us His touch when He left the Church to continue His ministry on Earth. With God's healing touch miracles happen. This week on Harmony of Thunder: The Eucharistic passage of St. Paul's first epistle to the Corinthians (11:23-26) is the starting point for St. Cyril of Jerusalem's fifth sermon in his series called Mystagogical Catechesis, teachings given to new converts to the Christian faith in Jerusalem in the middle of the fourth century. St. Cyril wants his hearers - and us - to remember that the Eucharist is indeed the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. You don't want to miss this important message, which is so central to our faith.

On Theologically Thinking, Fr. Fr. Athanasios Haros of the Transfiguration of Our Savior Greek Orthodox Church in Florence, South Carolina joins us again for his sermon entitled “An Unused Gift is a Wasted Gift.” “God has given us a wealth of gifts including the Church. These gifts have a great purpose to help others. If we refuse to use them to glorify God and keep them to ourselves, when He asks us what we have done with those gifts, we might find ourselves burning with torment like the Rich Man after we have been buried.” On OTTO, part two on defining and dealing with Peer Pressure. Join Teens from South Florida as they discuss the difficulties, challenges and understandings of the what and whys of this growing problem. Last week on Harmony of Thunder does something a little different: Fr. David reads the entire sermon of St. Cyril of Jerusalem on the sacrament of chrismation, without comment.
