What To Do With Saint Ignatius?

Theron Mathis

"Because Ignatius was a contemporary and disciple of the apostles, his understanding of the apostolic faith would have been identical to that of the apostles. Yet his 7 epistles, which are his last will and testament, indicate multiple doctrines that did not fit my Evangelical image of the early church and interpretation of Scripture."

The Letter of an Orthodox Catechumen to His Beloved Daughter

Ray Anthony Iavasile

"Recognizing your sin and your helplessness should drive you to Christ. It does bring despair, as it should, because sin – leads to death unless you have Christ. The fact that you are conscious of your sin and know that you believe in Christ, is enough to quiet your soul and find the rest Jesus promises above. Yes, turn from your sin (it often feels like our own effort) but realize that it is he who gives you that desire to do so and it is he who gives you the grace and strength to do so."

Campbell's Journey Takes Him From Pre-Med to Priesthood

Campbell said he was most nervous about the incredible spiritual responsibility of acting as priest, such as asking for God's blessing over the sacraments, performing weddings and hearing confessionals. The parish, founded in 2002, is more of a close-knit family than the larger churches Campbell served in New Jersey, and that sense of community is what Campbell said binds them together.

Polycarp (Dr. Rohan Nehamaiyah)

In early 2015, Pravoslavie.ru posted in both Russian and English an article by Clement Nehamaiyah on his path to the Orthodox Church. To our pleasant surprise, we learned that the article was read in India and prompted an Indian non-Chalcedonian Christian to write a letter to Clement in which he attempts to prove that the “Indian Orthodox Church” is the true Church of Christ as it was brought to India by the Apostle Thomas. We asked Clement to answer this very interesting letter, and his brother Polycarp, who became Orthodox together with his brother, responded.
