(Part 1 of 2)

My guest Shayne Swenson and I had so much to talk about here that I have made it a two-part episode. Shayne is an Orthodox Christian iconographer. He has devoted his life to serving Christ and His Church through the labor of painting iconography.

In this two-part episode, we dive deep into Shayne's story, his job as a tattooer and how that's viewed in the Church. We also get into iconography and all of the nuance surrounding that issue/topic.
