  • A Golden Bridge to the world for Orthodox and Protestant Christians alike

    Respectful, polite, and genuinely informative conversation between very well-read men of God. I began listening to Fr. Andrew through Lord of Spirits and eventually found my way here. What a blessing his knowledge of Classics and Historical Christianity has been in my understanding of how to relate to those of differing faith backgrounds. Check the podcast out!

  • This is not a podcast about law

    But that’s ok. It’s a podcast of two friends talking about Christian stuff and providing the prototype for constructive conversations. I’ve sent this to both friends and enemies.

    I love the duo, which is a different style, but equal quality as Lord of Spirits. I am one of your Protestant fans.
