    Being a "Living Icon", Loving One Another, Becoming a New Creation. W/ Fr John Vlahos Season 2 Ep 1   Welcome to Season 2 of my show!   You can find the link to my other podcast "Faithfully Feminine" on my website; https://www.adevotionalheart.com   *Please forgive me; in the interview I said that Father John has a website, but I meant he has a bi-weekly program that can be accessed on this website (Orthodox Christian Network): https://myocn.net/living-icon-series-with-fr-john-vlahos/ "Life is all about relationships. Our relationship with God, and our relationships with our families, friends, enemies, and everyone in between. LIVING ICON is a bi-weekly program with Fr. John Vlahos that addresses our everyday challenges and opportunities of living in relationship with our neighbors. These broadcasts aim at offering practical and theological solutions for developing into spiritually healthy and mature Christians. The well-known saying goes, “In seeking a relationship, you have to find the right person.” The hope is that LIVING ICON will help you realize that it is not about finding the right person, as much as it is about you becoming the right person!"   I do not receive revenue from YouTube ads at the time of this upload.  You can support my project by donating via this paypal link: https://paypal.me/ALIGNEDVISIONARY?country.x=US&locale.x=en_USOr via Venmo @ADHeart Thank you and God Bless you!  Are you a woman who is interested in the Orthodox Church and have no idea where to start?  Follow my IG: @A.Devotional.Heart where I review books and share content from other Orthodox Christians.  The focus is femininity, softening our hearts while turning away from the traps of this world, and a life in service to God.  I host a Telegram group for female Orthodox inquirers, catechumen, and baptized Orthodox, so message me if you are interested.  My Telegram: https://t.me/DevotionalHearts You can also request information from me about my Faith-Based Coaching practice for women by messaging me on IG: https://www.instagram.com/a.devotional.heart/ I plan to release at least two videos per month; so please like, share and Subscribe to my Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzDyfx_PN4St1KE5bC4djdA  Hit the bell to be notified of my future interviews and videos.  I am not an expert, apologist, authority, spokesperson, or leader on/in the Orthodox Church.
