Aether Hour Ep. 8: The First Icon?!
In this fascinating episode Conrad & Dmitriy do a deep dive on the Mandylion (Image of Odessa), the earliest icon/image of Christ and how it is playing a role in warfare even today! We also discuss the Shroud of Turin and its place in Orthodox tradition and go deep on the reality of Christian images and how they reflect the way the Holy Spirit and Energies of God work in our lives! ☦️
