Holy Chaos is a thought-provoking podcast hosted by Episcopal priests Dean Owen Thompson and Father Brian Blayer. Centered around faith in action, the podcast features in-depth interviews with local community members who are champions of social justice, community empowerment, and compassionate outreach. Through honest conversations and inspiring stories, Holy Chaos explores how ordinary people are creating extraordinary change—navigating the tension between spiritual calling and real-world challenges. Grounded in Episcopal values, this podcast offers a hopeful and courageous vision for how faith communities can engage the world with love, justice, and purpose.
At Christ Church Cathedral we strive to do transformative work, being Jesus’ hands and feet in our community. We proudly partner with and resource organizations promoting reconciliation, social justice, and advocacy.
With a long history of loving and serving the marginalized, the work of making Cincinnati a more equitable place requires partnership and collaboration. Community grant dollars are routinely awarded to organizations that house, feed, and clothe the poor, and to groups that foster mentoring and educational programs to break the cycle of poverty.
