<p>You know those messages that you get all the time, the ones that pop up out of nowhere? They could be real, but something about them seems fishy. You likely dismiss these texts and emails as mere annoyances, thinking you’ve stopped some random stranger from ripping you off. But the shocking truth is, the person behind that message might be trapped inside a “scam factory” on the other side of the world and forced to scam others against their will. From Wondery, comes a new series about the brutal reality behind these operations, where one family discovers a horrifying truth: the only way out is to scam their way out.</p><p><br /></p><p>Listen Now: <a href="http://wondery.fm/Scam_Factory" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Wondery.fm/Scam_Factory</a> </p><p>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.</p>

<p>Pyrrhus of Epirus won costly but clear victories over the Romans in their first battlefield meetings, but couldn't win the war.

Four episodes ago we talked in detail about the Divine Liturgy and its place at the heart of Byzantine life. I put out the call for listeners to ask questions. Particularly those of us not familiar with Orthodoxy or ecclesiastical issues in general. And Father Strickland has kindly returned to answer them. </p><br /><p>The questions are wide ranging and so demand thorough answers which Father John provides. So we decided to split them over two episodes. Today we tackle the Orthodox view on salvation and purgatory. As well as the role of the Ecumenical Patriarch and thoughts on the Byzantine understanding of how the divine played a role in daily life. Then we finish with the Orthodox view of Catholicism, Church Union and evangelisation. </p><p> </p><p>John is the pastor of an Orthodox Church in Poulsbo in Washington State. He wrote a four-volume series about the history of Christian civilization called Paradise and Utopia. He’s also recorded a podcast of the same name as an accompaniment to the books which you can find wherever you get your podcasts or at <a href="http://www.ancientfaith.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.ancientfaith.com</a>.</p><p><br /></p><hr /><p style="color: grey; font-size: 0.75em;"> Hosted on Acast.

<p>Σε αυτό το επεισόδιο έχουμε καλεσμένη τη Δρ. Μαρία Λεοντσίνη, ερευνήτρια στο Εθνικό Ίδρυμα Ερευνών, για να συζητήσουμε τη μελέτη του περιβάλλοντος στις βυζαντινές πηγές. Αναλύουμε τη σημασία της περιβαλλοντικής ιστορίας και της μελέτης της βυζαντινής πανίδας, εξετάζοντας τη σχέση ανθρώπου-φύσης μέσα από λογοτεχνικά και ιστοριογραφικά κείμενα. Η συζήτηση καλύπτει θέματα όπως η κλιματική αλλαγή, η γεωργία, η κτηνοτροφία και η διεπιστημονική έρευνα, ενώ η Δρ. Λεοντσίνη εξηγεί πώς η μελέτη του περιβάλλοντος φωτίζει νέες πτυχές της βυζαντινής κοινωνίας και οικονομίας.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>🔗 Άκουσε το podcast μας εδώ:<br /><a href="https://linktr.ee/byzantioexplainedpodcast" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://linktr.ee/byzantioexplainedpodcast</a></p> <p><br /></p> <p>📧 <em>Email:</em> <a href="mailto:[email protected]" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">[email protected]</a></p> <p>#Byzantioexplained #podcast #Byzantines #Byzantineempire #documentary</p> <p><br /></p> <p>Ακολουθήστε το Podcast<br />📸 Instagram ► <a href="https://www.instagram.com/byzantioexplained/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/byzantioexplained/</a><br />✖️ X ► <a href="https://x.com/ByzantioExpl_p" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://x.com/ByzantioExpl_p</a><br />🌐 Bluesky ► <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/byzantioexplained.bsky.social" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bsky.app/profile/byzantioexplained.bsky.social</a><br />📘 Facebook ► <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Byzantioexplained" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/Byzantioexplained</a><br />🎧 Spotify ► <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/3FtJ3ixEZiYBwuqyQ81mdg" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/show/3FtJ3ixEZiYBwuqyQ81mdg</a><br />🍏 Apple Podcasts ► <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gr/podcast/byzantio-explained/id1554787771" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/gr/podcast/byzantio-explained/id1554787771</a><br />▶️ YouTube ► <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCumFGMN8OHqCxrxRl-wTEQA" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCumFGMN8OHqCxrxRl-wTEQA</a></p>
