  Ep. 25: Are You Making Time for God?

  Aug 15, 202631 minS1

  If someone looked at your daily schedule, would they see that Christ is at the center of your life? In my last solo episode, I talked about why we belong in church. But what happens after Sunday? We attend Divine Liturgy, and then what? In this episode, I share practical ways to keep Christ at the center of our lives every day. But I'm certainly not speaking as someone who has this all figured out. I'm walking this path right alongside you. I talk about some of the practices I'm trying to be more intentional about in my own life, including prayer, Scripture, fasting, and simple ways we can invite Christ into our daily lives. If this resonated with you, please consider following the podcast and sharing it with someone who may be encouraged by it. Always remember to keep Christ first.

  Ep. 24: Keeping Christ at the Center as Working Parents

  Aug 8, 202634 minS1

  Between work, raising children, keeping up with the home, and everything else that fills our days, how do we make sure Christ doesn't get pushed to the side? In this episode, my husband Polydoros joins me to answer a listener question about balancing work, family, and our Orthodox Christian faith. We certainly don’t have it all figured out, and we’re learning each and every day. But together, we share honestly about what we’re trying to do in our own family to keep Christ at the center while navigating the demands of working outside the home and raising our children. Our hope is that this conversation encourages other working parents to resist comparison, seek God's guidance, and find small, realistic ways to continually turn their homes and families toward Christ. If this episode resonated with you, please consider following the podcast and sharing it with someone who may be encouraged by it. Always remember to keep Christ first. He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life! ☦️ #Orthodoxy #OrthodoxChristian #ChristianParenting #WorkingParents #ThatOrthodoxMama

  Ep. 23: Don't Give Up on Church

  Jul 25, 202635 minS1

  Whether you've never been to church or it's been years since you've walked through the doors, this episode is for you. Have you ever found yourself wanting to grow closer to God, yet struggling to make it to church consistently? In this episode, I share why church attendance matters, what the research says about its impact on our well-being, and why gathering for worship is essential to the Orthodox Christian life. I'll also address some of the most common reasons people don't go to church—from being too busy or too tired, to feeling hurt, disconnected, or overwhelmed—and offer practical, realistic ways to build consistency, even if you're just starting. My prayer is that this episode encourages you to take one faithful step closer to Christ and His Church. Whether that's attending this Sunday or simply making church more of a priority, remember: it's never too late. If this episode resonated with you, please consider following the podcast and sharing it with someone who may be encouraged by it. Always remember to keep Christ first.

  Ep. 21: Faithful Marriage in Today’s World with Father Panteleimon Papadopoulos

  Jun 27, 202649 minS1

  The strongest marriages aren't the ones without problems... They're the ones that face them with Christ ☦️ In this episode, I sit down with Father Panteleimon Papadopoulos of the Greek Orthodox Church of the Holy Resurrection in Brookville, New York to discuss what faithful marriage looks like in today's world. We discuss what happens spiritually when a husband and wife are married in the Orthodox Church, the "secret" to a long-lasting marriage, whether compatibility is overrated, and the common traps couples fall into during conflict. Whether you're newly married, have been married for decades, or hope to be married one day, I pray this conversation encourages you to keep Christ at the center of your marriage and your home 🙏 And if this conversation resonated with you, please consider sharing it with a friend or family member who may be encouraged by it ❤️ Always remember to keep Christ first.

  Ep. 20: Discipline in the Orthodox Christian Life

  Jun 20, 202625 minS1

  Why is discipline harder than ever? In this episode, my husband and I sit down to discuss discipline in the Orthodox Christian life and the challenges Christians face in a world filled with distractions, technology, and instant gratification. We share some of the spiritual disciplines that have most impacted our faith, including prayer, fasting, reading the Scriptures, church attendance, confession, and family prayer. We also discuss areas where discipline can be difficult and why growth often comes through consistency rather than perfection. If this episode resonated with you, please consider following the podcast and sharing it with someone who may be encouraged by this conversation 🙏 Always remember to keep Christ first.
