The Crowns of Marriage with Fr. Elias Dorham
Update: 2025-06-04
Description
This week we welcome Fr. Elias Dorham back to the podcast with a unique take on marriage and the vows. Ann and Fr. Elias discuss their shared Eastern Catholic tradition with a look into the Byzantine Catholic marriage ceremony, and the Rite of Crowning. Fr. Elias shares the symbolism of the crowns, their connection to the vows, and how their meaning can be lived out practically through the love of all spouses for each other. The tradition of “Crowning” may be new to you, but it offers a beautiful lens through which to view your marriage and live out the call to serve your spouse and the world!
