Looking for a way to go deeper into the Orthodox Christian faith by listening? Patristic Nectar Publications brings the wealth of Sacred Tradition to a generation more at home with audio than print — theological lectures, Synaxarion readings of the saints, Scripture, catechism, the Arena podcast, Philokalia and Psalter audio, homilies, conference recordings, and patristic audiobooks, gathered in one free app.^1
The work is a non-profit California ministry of Orthodox Christian Ministries, Inc., begun in 2010 by Fr. Josiah Trenham, an archpriest in the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America. He has pastored St. Andrew Orthodox Church in Riverside, California since 1998 and completed a Ph.D. in theology at the University of Durham.^2^4
The entire online lecture catalog is free, so inquirers and lifelong Orthodox Christians can start without a paywall. Monthly donors receive exclusive content, and gifts are tax-deductible.^1
A family channel offers weekly saint stories, children's sermons, and storytime, and the ministry also publishes a podcast for women.^1 The app is on iOS and Android.^5
