The Living History of Christianity: Orthodoxy in Architecture, Paintings and Music

January 16, 2019 ICNY

Filed Under: Podcasts Tagged With: Christianity, Orthodoxy, podcast

Host Hannah Meholick, with (clockwise from top left):

The Very Reverend Fr. Thomas Zain, Dean,
St. Nicholas Antiochian Orthodox Cathedral

Fr. Gregory Saroufeem,
St. Mary and St. Mark Coptic Orthodox Church of Manhattan

The Right Reverend Archimandrite Father Christopher Calin,
Russian Orthodox Cathedral of the Holy Virgin Protection (Orthodox Church in America)

Rev. Fr. John Vlahos, Dean,
Holy Trinity Cathedral (Greek Orthodox)

In the last episode, we looked at how Orthodox Christianity made its way to the United States and established communities here in New York City.  In this episode, we experience exquisite expressions of Orthodox faith in architecture, paintings and music, while examining how different groups of Orthodox Christians are connecting across lines of faith.  Why do Orthodox Christians venerate icons?  How does the architecture of an Orthodox church evoke the embrace of God?  How does music uniquely articulate Orthodox faith? And how do Orthodox Christians in New York City share their traditions and practices with non Orthodox Christians?  Listen in, and experience the faith of our 200,000 NYC Orthodox Christian neighbors.
