Well, with great help from my 18 year old, I have finally been able to complete my first podcast!

The series is entitled "Windows to the Word" which is also a book project of mine. Through this outreach in the Southland, I will provide biblical commentary on the icons of the Church.
Windows to the Word: Ascension Thursday [saintmichaelschapel.org]

Just thought I would share. Feel free to offer constructive feedback on my first feeble attempt to enter the 21st century...

A blessed feast to all!

Ye men of Galilee, [newliturgicalmovement.org] why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

Happy feast of the Ascension! Thank you, Fr Deacon Daniel, for a fine reflection on this, the greatest of the feasts of our Lord [wdtprs.com]. I guess my only criticism is that it seems just a bit like you're reading from a manuscript, rather than speaking normally. I would suggest that you relax, take your time, and speak like you would to a group of your friends.

You have a good "radio" voice.

Please do more!

Thank you for your kind response. (And thank you, Latin Catholic, for your great suggestions! I was a bit nervous doing this for the first time, so I tried to stick to the script as much as possible. It is challenging to strike a balance between content and form in these types of ventures...!)

Re: the festal greeting, I was told that this is the greeting for the Ukrainians, while the Ruthenians respond with the location. I'm curious if anyone has heard something different?

not to derail this EXCELLENT topic of your podcast (I'm going to listen to it again and take notes!)

I'll start another thread (lest I be admonished by the Administrators) re the question of the Ascension Greeting.

So what's the next podcast going to be?
