Immerse yourself in the sacred *Double Edged Sword Podcast* episode, "Escape Vain Glory," rooted in Acts 14:11-14. Father Genard guides us through a reverent journey, reflecting on the apostles Paul and Barnabas as they reject worldly praise to glorify God alone. This episode traces the early Christian mission, from Pentecost to the healing of the lame, and the Gentiles’ mistaken worship of Paul and Barnabas as gods. With wisdom from Holy Scripture and insights from saints like Theophylact, we’re called to turn from vain idols and superstitions—past and present—and offer ourselves wholly to the living God who gave His Son for our salvation. Let this faith-filled reflection, enriched by prayers for enlightenment and obedience to God’s commandments, uplift your soul. Tune in and be blessed!
