“We follow the Church’s lectionary — slowly, in context, and in conversation with the Church Fathers.”
A Coptic Orthodox Scripture Podcast
Whispers
from the Ages
An Orthodox journey through Scripture — reading the Bible with the Church, the Church Fathers, and the historical reality in which it was given.
“Reading Scripture the way the early Church understood it.”
What this is — and what it isn’t
This is NOT
- A debate podcast
- Apologetics or argument
- A theology flex
- A platform built to “grow”
This IS
- A shared Orthodox Bible study
- Rooted in the Apostolic faith
- Guided by the Church Fathers
- Spoken in lay language, for formation
We read Scripture with people, not at people.

Be Watchful — No One Knows the Day
Mark 13:3–37 · The Mount of Olives Discourse
Four men asked Jesus a single question — maybe the most natural one a human being can ask. When? He refused to answer it. Flatly. And then He said one word, four times over, and left them with that instead. For two thousand years people have gone digging through this passage for the answer He wouldn’t give — every one of them walking straight past the word He actually said. With the Church Fathers as our guides, we find why the answer they were begging for would have been the most dangerous thing He could ever have handed them.
The ways we read
Every episode falls into one of four forms — all slow, all rooted in the life of the Church.
“We enter the life of a saint not to admire them, but to see what repentance and life with Christ truly looks like.”
“We enter the council chamber one crisis at a time — to watch the Church defend what she had always believed.”
“We walk through the Liturgy one moment at a time — so that next Sunday looks different to you.”
