247 - In the Greatness of Your Mercy - What God is Not Podcast

This week Fr. Michael reflects on a sentence in a prayer that the priest prays during Divine Liturgy, "...in the greatness of your mercy you have brought all things out of nonexistence into being..." Fr. Michael talks about what it means for God to be mercy, to give mercy, and why God brought us into being in the first place. He reads some reflections from Archbishop Raya in the Byzantine Book of Prayer. *References:* Byzantine Book of Prayer from Byzantine Seminary Press - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6473106-byzantine-book-of-prayer *Pilgrimage:* We're going on pilgrimage!
