My Video Library—Faith Reflections & Conference Talks
Here you’ll find short Bible quizzes, theological reflections, and recorded presentations from international conferences. These videos are part of my ongoing mission to explore faith, scripture, and our shared responsibility to care for Creation.
Bible Shorts – YouTube Reflections on Scripture
Bible Quiz — Vision of Amos
Each of these shorts invites you to rediscover biblical truths in a fresh light.
In this one, the prophet Amos sees a basket of ripe fruit (Amos 8:1–2)—a vision of fullness, readiness… and impending judgment. But fruit also signals life, maturity, and harvest.
If you’re drawn to go deeper, I invite you to continue the conversation on my blog at www.lindavogtturnerca.blog and explore The Ecumenical Affair—a love story ripened by faith.
Bible Quiz - the Crown of Thorns
What is the Greek word for the Crown of Thorns?
The answer is stephanos—a victor’s crown. Yet this one is twisted with thorns. Stephen, the first to die for the Gospel, bore that name. Paul stood by, consenting—and baptized the very household that bore it. Mere coincidence? Or part of the mystery Paul reveals? I explore this further on my blog.
Bible Quiz - Mary Magdalene in the Early Church
Was the Magdalene a clinging vine — or the true vine itself?
On my blog, I explore this mystery (John15), peeling back layers of tradition, symbol, and scriptural memory to rediscover Mary Magdalene’s true place in the story.
What's the Love Story of Ruth and Boaz got to do with Christmas?
Ruth approached Boaz on a threshing floor strewn with hay, where she dared to propose. But Boaz first had to redeem her from another—by offering his sandal in Bethlehem.
Generations later, another Joseph stands holding a lamp beside Mary in a barn filled with hay. Not just a witness, but her bridegroom—the one called Father to Jesus.
On my blog, I follow the thread of this ancient love story, as it winds from Ruth to the Nativity, from redemption to revelation.
Christmas traditions 2023 Video
What do the barn, hay, Zeus, and Away in a Manger have to do with ancient beliefs—and with Barnabas and Joseph?
In this Christmas reflection, I unwrap familiar traditions and trace their roots to surprising connections—where myth, memory, and the Gospel story intertwine.

Soil Health 2023 Video
SAPREJ 2023|ADDIS ABABBA, ETHIOPIA
In this video I take a stand for SOIL HEALTH AND BIODIVERSITY with CARBON CAPTURE, UTILIZATION AND STORAGE. Green House Gases can be used to provide energy while cleaning up the environment, restoring soil health and promoting a circular carbon cycle based upon the 3 Rs, reduce, reuse and recycle.
Ecothee 2022 Conference | orthodox academy of crete
In this video I take a stand for the Black Rock and remind Christian viewers that the concept of Christ being the Rock, the Stone upon which their Church and faith are built, is biblical and no empty claim. Christians all over the world claim this Rock is a divine gift and that this Rock is the building block of all life and in the fullness of time, according to divine plan, this Rock became human and will come again at the end of the age so that the faithful will shine like the sun (Matt.13:43)
Ecothee 2019 Conference | orthodox academy of crete
Here I take a stand with many Canadians and poorer
communities who want responsible economic development and a financial stake in the delivery and use of energy including fossil fuels. One conference participant said the Patriarch had declared the use of Fossil Fuel a SIN. Another accused me of being the poster girl for the OIL Industry! Am I, as Mary Magdalene once was, demon possessed and the worst sinner because I dare to suggest pollution from King Coal and Big Oil can be used and redeemed?
Theology & Ecology Conference | Crete 2013 | Vicky arvelaki
This Documentary by Vicky Arvelaki shows the eco-justice commitment of the Orthodox Academy of Crete co-founded by Dr. Alexandros Papaderos to bring reconciliation and peace between Germans and Cretans who vowed they would never forget and never stop hating each other after the destruction of WW 2. They dared to think: "If Cretans and Germans could forgive one another and achieve a constructive relationship, others could too!"
