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 Damik, 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.

All right, welcome to the FOMO episode of Lord of Spirits.

I don't know what intro may or may not have been inserted before I began.

But welcome, nonetheless.

So this is a very special episode, which is being recorded for all those folks who aren't going to be at the Lord

of Spirit's conference this week, at which we're recording this week's actual episode, but which

you won't get to hear live because the internet at the Antiochian Village is lame.

So you'll have to hear it recorded after the fact.

But those of you who are not in attendance, we'll get to hear this first.

So this is sort of the consolation prize, the turtle wax, as it were, of Lord of Spirit's

episodes.
