Tuesday, July 15: Today on The Daily Grind, John unpacks the fiery story of the Iconoclast Controversy — when emperors and bishops battled over sacred images in the Eastern Church. We learn how the Byzantine world loved icons as windows to heaven, but fear of idolatry sparked destruction. Soldiers smashed mosaics, monks hid paintings, and faithful believers risked their lives to preserve what they saw as visual theology. John of Damascus defended icons by pointing to the Incarnation: the invisible God became visible in Christ. The fight tested where worship ends and idolatry begins. In the end, icons were restored, but the tension between image and idol never really left. John asks how our modern eyes and hearts might cling to other substitutes for living faith. How do our symbols point us — or distract us — from Jesus? Listen in for a lesson that’s surprisingly modern.
