Listen "551 — Basil the Great: Defender of Nicene Faith"
Episode Synopsis
Monday, July 14: Today on The Daily Grind, John takes you back to 4th-century Cappadocia to meet Basil the Great — a bold defender of the Nicene faith and a pioneer of Eastern monastic life. Basil didn’t just debate heresies in fancy halls; he opened hospitals, fed the poor, and built whole communities of practical love. He stood toe-to-toe with emperors who tried to intimidate him and held firm when the truth of Jesus’ divinity was under fire. Basil’s life reminds us that real faith shapes both the mind and the hands. It calls us to believe rightly and love deeply. He built a legacy that still inspires monks, pastors, and social reformers today. Listen in and discover how courage and compassion still defend the truth.
