Intro:

Hello and welcome to the Mystagogy podcast, offered as part of the Adult Faith Programs at Saint Stephen Martyr Church in Chesapeake, VA.

In a tradition dating back to the earliest centuries of Christianity, newly initiated believers were prepared for ongoing lives of faith through mystagogy, a period of formation designed to deepen their spiritual, liturgical and community life. Mystagogy is a Greek word which means "leading through the mysteries." 

This program is being developed and taught by Barbara Nicolosi Harrington, a university professor of screenwriting, cinema, Great Books and theology. 

 Today's episode is the second of two presentations on Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh. 

Outro:

The music for the podcast is provided by George Sarah. You can learn more about George and his music via a link in the show notes.
