The story of the first icon they ever purchased.
This is Orthodoxy.
Can a simple antique shop visit transform your spiritual life? Join us on an extraordinary journey through the world of Orthodox Christian icons, featuring an inspiring story that began for Mike and Laurie in an unexpected corner of Seattle. In this episode, we recount the serendipitous acquisition of their first sacred icons and explore the profound impact they have had on their faith. These icons, often depicting saints as ordinary people quietly honoring their devotion, have brought a deeper sense of connection and spirituality into their daily lives. They can do the same for you.
Listen in as we discuss how these humble images remind us of the "great cloud of witnesses" mentioned in Hebrews 11, surrounding us with saints who intercede for us at all times. We reflect on how such simple yet powerful symbols can enrich one's spiritual journey, connecting us to a larger community of faith that spans both time and space. Whether you’re an avid collector or simply curious about the spiritual significance of religious icons, this episode promises to provide an enriching and deeply moving perspective.
