A quick rundown of the Church hierarchy of deacons, priests, and bishops. What do they do, where do they fit. A LOT is missing here, we aimed to be short but it's one of the longest episodes we have so far. Please talk to a priest for more info!

I recently attended a Liturgy at the Russian Orthodox Cathedral in London. This is the first time I'd ever seen the entrance of a bishop. Without understanding a single word (of russian) I was moved to tears as his crown and vestments were removed and he humbled himself to the ground before the put back on. I liked that a lot of time was spent on this. It had a vibe of "I''m a repenting sinner like everyone else". It would be great to have an episode on this aspect as most outside the OC only see snapshots of the clergy fully dressed - without participating they miss out on the process of "lowering in order to be lifted by Christ"
Thanks and God Bless...
This is helpful for Protestants who don't see the need of clergy and don't note their historic Scriptural context.
