[Evangelicals, on this episode, we aren’t laughing at you.  The guest is too nice to do this and I’d be too much a hypocrite]

We released Eastern Orthodox Part 1 with former "rock stars (Luxury) gone Orthodox Priests" because I had no idea what the heck it meant to be orthodox and had to know.  Little did I know, the episode would influence my brother (former co-host and current producer of this show) to fully convert to the best paradigm of faith he’s ever worshipped in, perfectly suited to how he’s wired up.  He’s all in, I’m happy for him.   -- Joey 

But there’s more to the story.  The Orthodox church is THE REAL church?  My brother claims there’s one true church and the implications would say that most of us aren’t in it.  Father Josiah Trenham Ph.d, comes on to discuss this very question.  He also explains the importance of church buildings, “the invisible church doctrine” of evangelicals, how the functionality evangelicals ascribe to the “sinner’s prayer” is heresy, how Pentecostals aren’t Pentecostal enough and how prayer is the goal of life.  The question is posed here also, “If the true church is infallible, why did most of its adherents take part in the American slavery?”

At top of episode, me and some friends talk moral dilemmas and pacifism. 

FATHER JOSIAH TRENHAM is a native Southern Californian. He was ordained to the Holy Priesthood in 1993, and was awarded the Ph.D. in Theology from the University of Durham, England, in 2004. He has served as pastor of St. Andrew Orthodox Church in Riverside, Ca. since 1998.  Father Josiah was married in 1988, and has ten children.
