What Does It Mean to Be Orthodox?
The first Sunday of Lent, The Triumph of Orthodoxy, is the subject of this week's episode.
Originally remembering the Old Testament prophets, who spoke truth to power, now remembering the fathers of the 7th ecumenical council, which affirmed the necessity of the veneration of icons in Orthodox worship, Jim takes a few minutes to reflect on why it is Orthodoxy seems to triumph under adversity rather than flourishing when it is the established state religion.
