The Bear Woznick Adventure

Dr. Alexander Harb, author of The Kingdom of the Heart: Meditations from the Christian East, joins Bear Woznick to explore the heart-centered theology of Eastern Christianity. Together they dive into the mysticism of the early Church Fathers, the origins and meaning of the Jesus Prayer, and the fierce, solitary spirituality of the desert monks like St. Anthony the Great. The discussion centers on how these early Christians pursued holiness not through comfort but through stillness, silence, and struggle—preparing daily for death as the gateway to eternal life.In this episode:⚔️ Spiritual warfare was seen as literal, internal battles with demons and passions.
