God Promises, God Fulfills

Father Michael O'Loughlin and Mother Natalia
About this episode

Today's episode is a recording of the talk Mother Natalia gave at the SoCal Byzantine Retreat Day in March. Mother Natalia talks about the promises God makes to us and that He fulfills His promises. She uses the scripture of the day for the feast of the Annunciation to link the promises in the  Annunciation to the promises made in the Old Testament, and then talks about ways we can see God's promises to us in our lives.
