The Final Episode

Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick says farewell to this podcast after 10 years and nearly 400 episodes. But he's not going anywhere, and he's also announcing two new podcasts beginning this year, as well as some very special news.

Prepare Now to Return to Church (Mar. 22, 2020)

In the time of social distancing and isolation away from corporate worship, Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick says Christians must prepare now for their return to church. He gives five concrete ways to do that.

The Holy One and His Holy Ones (Mar. 15, 2020)

Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick tells us that angels were present and involved at the giving of the Law to Moses. The Lord Jesus says that the 'sons of the resurrection' are 'sons of God' and 'equal to the angels.' So then what does it mean to be saved?

Icons and Idols: Was God Invisible Before the Incarnation? (Mar. 8, 2020)

On the Sunday of the Triumph of Orthodoxy, Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick discusses how idols are radically different from icons, based both on man's encounters with the visible God before and after the Incarnation and also on a thorough understanding of how idolatry actually works.

The Sin That Corrupts From Within (Feb. 16, 2020)

On the Sunday of the Prodigal Son, Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick discusses what sexual immorality does to a person, noting how its devastating corruption is inward and difficult to uproot.

The Idolatry of the Pharisee (Feb. 9, 2020)

With the parable of the Publican and Pharisee, Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick shows how the Pharisee was actually an idolater. He adds further comments on the nature of idolatry and why it always turns back toward the self.

The First-Born (Feb. 2, 2020)

On the feast of the Meeting of the Lord in the Temple, Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick discusses Christ's role as the First-born and what it means for us to share in his inheritance.

Sin is Exile from the Kingdom (Jan. 19, 2020)

Using the Gospel of the Ten Lepers, Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick discusses how leprosy put the lepers outside society, how their healing has a purpose beyond physical health, and how that relates to the Kingdom of God and the immortality of its citizens.

Don't Feed Yourself to the Water Dragons (Jan. 12, 2020)

On the Eve of Theophany, Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick charges straight ahead into dragon territory, discussing what it means to confront the dragons in the water and also asking: Why don't we seem to see dragons any more?

Leaving the City of Cain (Dec. 22, 2019)

Abraham is called by God out of Ur of the Chaldees, a descendant of the civilization founded by the first murderer Cain. Yet when he reached the Promised Land, he lived in tents. Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick discusses why and how this relates to Christmas and to us.
