Local Roots in a Digital Babylon

from Made to Be a Kingdom Hosted by Fr. Harry Linsinbigler and Fr. Anthony Perkins

As America approaches its 250th anniversary, Fr. Anthony and Fr. Harry reflect on patriotism, nationhood, and the relationship between local communities and the Church. Drawing on political theory, Orthodox ecclesiology, and their own pastoral experience, they explore the difference between nations, peoples, and places, arguing that Christian life flourishes not in abstract ideologies but in concrete communities rooted in love, worship, and shared life. The conversation culminates in a discussion of the internet, technology, and the dangers of disembodied existence, offering a defense of local parish life as an essential antidote to the homogenizing forces of modern culture. Enjoy the show!
