Context Matters

The Spiritual World and Spiritual Beings Part 2

Episode Summary

The V. Rev. Archpriest Andrew Stephen Damick of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America joins us to talk about what he has learned through his podcast The Lord of Spirits.

Episode Notes

We pick up the conversation with Fr. Andrew talking about Demons. Who or what are they? You may be surprised to know that the term 'demon' originally referred to lesser spiritual beings (neither positive nor negative), but the early Christians used it pejoratively to describe pagan gods. In the Bible, these beings create chaos  and involved in both oppression and possession. 

Today's episode also includes a short analysis of the movie 'K-Pop Demon Hunters,' (With Spoilers!) highlighting its themes of redemption, self-sacrifice, and the portrayal of demonic influences.
