In this episode, Father Peter Jocelyn from St. Alban’s Pro Cathedral returns to discuss the need for order and balance in the Christian life, particularly as an antidote to the modern maelstrom of anxiety. The modern-day 24-hour media cycle and the doom scroll algorithm exacerbate feelings of chaos, encouraging Christians to embrace the ancient practice of intentional withdrawal. The practice is not presented as an escape but rather as a reordering of life around the Kingdom of God. By contrasting the tragic and pessimistic hope of the ancient Greeks with the eschatological certainty of Christian hope, Father Peter emphasizes that the path to peace lies in concrete and objective actions. These include observing the church calendar, participating in the corporate life of the sacraments, and moving out of the echo chamber of the mind to serve one’s neighbor. While we cannot control the culture’s nihilism, we can cultivate a rule of life that grounds us in the eternal Sabbath of Christ’s presence.
