May 14, 2025  •  Fr Anthony Sharkawy, Fr Elijah Iskander, The Salt Podcast

In this thought-provoking episode of The Salt Podcast, we sit down with two young Orthodox priests, Fr. Anthony and Fr. Elijah, both former medical professionals now serving at St. Mark's Orthodox Church in Arncliffe.


Join us as we explore pressing contemporary issues through the lens of faith, including:


Gender identity and the Orthodox perspective


The sanctity of life and the Church’s stance on abortion


Ethical considerations surrounding IVF and medical intervention


George Janko’s spiritual journey and what we can learn from his story


With their unique backgrounds in medicine and ministry, Fr. Anthony and Fr. Elijah provide valuable insights on how to navigate these complex topics while remaining rooted in Orthodox Christian teachings.


Tune in for a compelling conversation that challenges societal norms and encourages deeper spiritual reflection.
