Description
Welcome to the Searchers of the Lost podcast! Search for the Lord with us in this orthodox catholic podcast
Join us every two weeks for new episodes.
As a searcher, I am convinced that there are so many fellow searchers out there who desire to dig deeper and search harder for the Lord (Matt.7:7), even as our mother did when Jesus was busy about the Father's buisness in the temple. My journey has been long, difficult, blessed, traversing various Protestant denominations, Orthodoxy and Catholicism, and I am positive it has not ended. Thus, this podcast is Christian, catholic, and orthodox, and everyone who loves these things should feel at home here. This priest and those I bring onto this podcast love Jesus and His Church, and our hope is to invite others into charitable and intelligent dialogue and debate, that one day we "may all be one" (John 17:21).
Remember when commenting: “In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; in all things, charity.”
― St. Augustine

In this video, we explore the ancient Christian understanding of anger as a God-given part of the soul, meant to resist evil, not feed the ego. Drawing from the wisdom of Saint Isaiah the Solitary, we look at how to reorient our will, detach from worldly attachments, and let the God-centered intellect lead.
