CHICAGO, IL — The Department of Education of the Diocese of the Midwest has launched a Lenten video series aimed at deepening the spiritual knowledge of the faithful. The first installment features a discussion of the newly published book How to Read the Holy Fathers: A Guide for Orthodox Christians.
In the video, Priest Daniel Greeson, Director of the Department of Education, and Priest Joseph Lucas, Rector of Christ the Savior Orthodox Cathedral, explore the challenges of reading the Holy Fathers and offer practical guidance for approaching their writings. The discussion emphasizes the spiritual value of understanding these texts in the life of an Orthodox Christian.
Future videos in the series will focus on topics including compassion, catechesis, family life, and grief. All episodes will be available on the Department’s YouTube Channel, with additional resources shared regularly on their Facebook page.
Previously, the UOJ reported that the Church Roadmap podcast was to launch weekly in 2026 for Orthodox parishes.
