He will be a staff for the righteous with which for them to stand and not to fall,

and he will be the light of the nations and the hope of those whose hearts are troubled.

All who dwell on the earth will fall down and worship him,

and they will praise and bless and celebrate with song, the Lord of Spirits.

1st Enoch, chapter 48, verses 4 through 5. The modern world doesn't acknowledge,

but is nevertheless haunted by spirits, angels, demons, and saints. In our time, many yearn to

break free of the prison of a flat, secular materialism, to see and to know reality as it truly is. What is this spiritual reality

like? How do we engage with it well? How do we permeate everyday life with spiritual presence?

Orthodox Christian priests, Father Andrew Stephen Damick, and Father Stephen DeYoung,

host this live call-in show, focused on enchantment in creation,

the union of the scene and unseen as made by God and experienced by mankind throughout history.

Welcome to the Lord of Spirits.

Good evening, Giants Killers.

Man, I can't believe I messed up my phrase there. I don't know. Giant killers, dragon slayers, bat people. You're listening to the Lord of Spirit's podcast. My co-hosts, you don't hinder gender. You can do those other things to those other things. Duly noted. My co-host, Father Stephen DeYoung, editor-in-chief of the Etten Moors, is with me straight from the swamp in Lafayette, Louisiana, and I'm Father Andrew Stephen Damick in Amas, Pennsylvania, three square miles of glory, perched, atop the Arcane Tower of podcasting, hovering dozens of stories above a disused gateway to the underworld, former crematorium, and we're live.

And if you are listening to us live,

you can call us at 855-237-234-6,

and you can talk to us.

This is not an all-Q-N-A episode tonight.

We're actually covering some, you know,

some pre-planned content.

We'll get to your calls in just a minute

at the beginning of our second half.
