    The Dawn of the Age of Saints

    After Rome's withdrawal from Britain, the faith survives and flourishes in Wales. Dcn. Seraphim tells the stories of Saint Dyfrig (Dubricius), the wonder-working bishop of Ergyng; Saint Illtyd, the soldier-turned-monk who founded the great school at Llantwit Major; and Saint Samson of Dol, the restless pilgrim who carried British Christianity from Wales through Cornwall to Brittany — the first great peregrinus of the Celtic tradition.

    Blood and Thorn

    Dcn. Seraphim begins The Great Rood Screen Podcast with the legend of Joseph of Arimathea's arrival at Glastonbury, the miraculous Holy Thorn, and the founding of the first Christian church in Britain. He then discusses the podcast's mission and its name, drawn from Tolkien's vision of medieval literature as a "great rood screen" revealing the Holy of Holies. Finally, Dcn. Seraphim concludes with the story of Saint Alban, Protomartyr of Britain, and the earliest historical evidence for Christianity in the British Isles.
