What True Unity with the Orthodox Church Has to Look Like [Ep. 69]
Feeding Fathers
This week we’re talking Christian unity, sparked by the Pope’s recent trip to Turkey and Lebanon. We get into the real stuff: why Catholics and Orthodox Christians still aren’t on the same page, what keeps them apart, and why Fr. Simon politely said “nope” to an interview with an Orthodox priest. We also get honest about the big roadblocks—history, theology, culture—and why love and truth actually matter if unity is ever going to be a thing. Plus, we chat about Catholic–Orthodox marriages, the traditions that shape both communities, and, of course, the absolute blessing that is "Sacos Tacos." Featuring: Abbot Ankido Sipo, Fr. Simon Esshaki, Fr. Augustine Joseph, Fr. Tristan Farida
