WORDS OF LIFE: Daily Orthodox Christian Discipleship
Orthodox Christian Teaching
Welcome to WORDS OF LIFE, supplying spiritual nourishment for our life in Christ today. This podcast compliments DAILY ORTHODOX STUDY BIBLE READING, DAILY CATECHISM OF THE ORTHODOX CHURCH and THE MINISTRY OF THE WORD. While the latter broadcasts daily Gospel homilies, this podcast emphasises catechesis and in-depth study courses, suitable both for catechumens and those who want to strengthen their Christian faith and living.
