The Incarnation: To Allow Us to Know Happiness

Fr. Ted Bobosh

Christianity from its beginning proclaimed Jesus as the incarnate God. This claim seemed folly to many in the ancient world. For some asked incredulously, what would be the purpose of God becoming human?

Why Reading in Church Should be Unemotional

Fr. Andrei Chizhenko

This is why the word of God must be expressed with purity of sound, clarity of speech, and the articulation of each syllable; a church reader must not impose his personal emotions on the people praying in church.

I’ll Be Small for Christmas

Fr. Stephen Freeman

The adherents of modernity not only feel certain of the correctness of their worldview; they believe that it should be utterly obvious to any reasonable person. Resistance is reactionary, the product of ignorance or evil intent. But from within classical Christianity, this is pure heresy, and perhaps the most dangerous threat that humanity has ever faced.

What it means to struggle against evil

Patriarch Pavle

And finally, the Lord instructs us to do more, to begin to resist evil. The Lord says: do not resist evil with violence.

World Story – the News and the Good News

Fr. Stephen Freeman

When “being religious” is a sickness

Fr. James Guirguis

One of the things we learn from Our Lord, God and savior Jesus Christ is that outward observances don’t matter, in fact they are downright evil, when they do not transform those who practice them. We encounter just such a situation here.

A Terrible Knowledge

Fr. Stephen Freeman

We humans are a curious lot. We want to know everything about our business and much about what is not our business. In a world that has deeply internalized the notion that everything is a democracy, we cannot bear hearing that not all knowledge is meant for us.

"The Church is not a Social Club"

Fr. Sergius Nezhbort

Natural Death and the Work of Perfection

Fr. Alexey Young

Physician-assisted suicide, aside from being a violation of both Christian law and Christian simplicity, should be absolutely avoided in order not to deprive the terminally ill of the full human and spiritual experience of dying, an experience which, within the context of a traditional Christian way of thinking, living, and acting is far from intolerable or negative; rather, it is exceedingly enriching and valuable, offering another way of knowledge—that of experience informed by theology—a way of knowing of which modern man, in his race to avoid all that is uncomfortable or unpleasant, has almost no understanding.
