  This version of this episode has been available to Cloud of Witnesses Patreons since July 11th, 2026. We dig into what “authority” really means, starting with current events and ending with the uncomfortable question behind so many hot takes: who gave you the right to define Christianity. We push back on DIY faith, argue that real authority looks like service and sacrifice, and trace why the Orthodox Church treats tradition as an inheritance that keeps the fire alive. • St Cat...

  The Great Orthodox Surge Continues | Witness Weekly 004 10.08.2026 40min

  Something unusual is happening across American Christianity: more people are walking into Orthodox parishes, signing up as catechumens, and staying long enough to be reshaped by the Divine Liturgy. We zoom in on what that “Orthodox surge” looks like on the ground, from standing-room-only Sundays to communities talking seriously about planting multiple missions because their current buildings cannot hold the crowd. ***** Music: ⁨@neffexmusic⁩ "Manifest It" (Instrumental) ***** Witnes...

  Attorney Turned Orthodox Apologist - with Alex Sorin 05.08.2026 17min

  He “blew up overnight” but the real story is years of research, catechesis, and court-tested thinking. Why does a trial lawyer’s mindset work so well for Orthodox apologetics? Cloud of Witnesses Mario Andrew, Jeremy Jeremiah, Michael, and James St Simon talk with online Orthodox Christian apologist Alex Sorin (https://www.youtube.com/@Alex_Ortodoxie/videos) and we wrestle with a challenging line from Father Josiah Trenham: the Church doesn’t need you to defend her.

  This edition was available to Cloud of Witnesses Patreons since July 6, 2026. Her dad died by suicide when she was 9 and it rewired everything.

  What's the Point of Christopher Nolan's Film The Odyssey? 31.07.2026 13min

  We wrestle with the moral cost of war through a modern Odyssey lens, especially what it means to see the divine image in people you might be ordered to kill. We ask whether “necessary” violence can ever be clean, and why the ones who protect everyone else often carry scars the rest of us never have to bear. • Athena’s beheading as a symbol of desecration and conscience • war as ugly even when defense feels necessary • Zeus’s law of hospitality set against survival and self-...

  Ancient Christian Faith Against The Modern Secular Drift | Witness Weekly 004 "That" Episode 30.07.2026 46min

  Christians Built Their Own Netflix? The Future of Christian Media & Content with Logos Cinema 21.07.2026 1t 8min

  Deplatforming is real. So two Orthodox filmmakers built their own infrastructure: “an Orthodox Netflix” designed to outlast trends and serve truth, goodness, and beauty. You can feel it the moment you walk into an Orthodox church: beauty isn’t decoration, it’s a doorway. That’s the thread we pull with Logos Cinema (https://www.logoscinema.com/) founders Zachary Delaney and Andrew Stokich as they explain why they’re building what many are calling “an Orthodox Netflix” and why it has to ...

  The Authority Crisis Inside Christianity: If the Bible Is the Answer... Who Interprets It?
