Spyro (Scott Morrow): Seeker, Artist, Friend to All

Orthodox Unscripted: a conversation Elissa met Spyro at a screening for the Orthodox art film, El Tonto por Cristo, which features Spyro's art. They talk about Spyro's lifelong seeking, his love of art, and a near-death experience in his young adulthood. Spyro also explains the he has found a way to use his art to reach out to the non-Orthodox through a game that he and a friend created, based on the concpet of Tollhouses. (You read that right -- and it might be more fun than you ever thought tollhouses could be.)

Light Streams In, Again

Light Streams In is moving from Ancient Faith Radio to its new home right here. As Bright Week comes to a close, Elissa contemplates the light of Christ's resurrection, and the darkness which cannot overcome it, linking St. Porphyrios' teachings to the culture wars.

Cynthia Damaskos talks about the Filled with Less women's wellness ministry, their approach to flourishing and to living an intentional life, and how we might practice self-care during Holy Week.

Nina Morris, Parenting from the Front Row

Over two decades, Nina and Elissa raised their children together in the same parish, and now that the older kids are young adults, they’ve come to a transition point – the days of directing the show are over, but now they’re sitting in front row seats and are looking forward to watching the rest of the story.

Summer Kinard on Bearing Each Other's Burdens

What makes a good Lent? Summer Kinard joins Elissa to talk about Great Lent -- and how we mistake it for an opportunity to bear our crosses, rather than a call to bear each other's burdens.
