[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

The Inherent Violence of Modernity

Fr. Stephen Freeman

Modernity is not about how to live rightly in the world, but about how to make the world itself live rightly.

[English Edition / Saints. Asceties of Piety. Church Holy Days ]

What happened to the Church of Acts?

The Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. John. (17:1-13)

Fr. James Guirguis

Imagine the deep desire of the Lord Jesus Christ for unity. Imagine the love that He has for His Church! His prayer is not for Himself but for His followers. His goal is our unity. When someone loves God he desires peace and unity everywhere.

[English Edition / Saints. Asceties of Piety. Church Holy Days ]

Panegyric on the Ascension of the Lord

Archimandrite Iachint (Unchiuleac)

There were two things that the disciples of our Lord Jesus Christ could not understand, namely: that He had to suffer for the salvation of the world, and that in forty days after the Resurrection He would ascend to Heaven.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

God does not listen to sinners!

On the Sunday of the man born blind

Priest Leonid Kudryachov

Yes you are right, formerly blind man, right a thousand times over that “God does not listen to sinners” (Jn. 9:31)!

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

Even Outside the Church, God Seeks Man and Man Seeks God

Sergei Komarov

Brothers and sisters, this fact proclaims the great and delightful truth that God pours out His grace upon everybody! How often we, Orthodox Christians, forget it and claim the monopoly on God’s help! In truth very many believe that the Creator doesn’t take care of people outside the Orthodox Church.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

Blind From Birth and Blind Souls

Hieromonk Arsenie Boca

Look at the tragedy of this situation: The blind man acquires sight, but the Pharisees’ minds and eyes are darkened with rage directed against him and Jesus.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

We Must Obey in Order to See: Homily for the Sunday of the Blind Man in the Orthodox Church

Fr. Philip LeMasters

Imagine how great our responsibility is, then, to open the eyes of our souls as fully as possible to the light of Christ.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

Overcoming Anger

Fr. Ted Bobosh

The cure for anger? Humility is a cure all for much of what ails us spiritually in Orthodox literature.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

Dishonest Dialogue

Fr. Lawrence Farley

The term “dialogue” seems to have taken its place alongside the proverbial terms “motherhood”, “apple pie”, and “the flag” as sacred and untouchable.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

Jesus taught us to love all races

Fr. Barnabas Powell

Nothing so annoys and disturbs us as those so similar that their differences reflect on our own identity.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

Addiction and Fulfillment

Fr. James Guirguis

Have you ever noticed that it is really easy for people to become addicts? We look all around us and we find that people are addicted to all sorts of things.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

Dealing with Anger

Fr. Lawrence Farley

So then, when we do find ourselves angry and some real or imagined offence, what are we to do? I suggest three things.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

Imitation of Christ

Bishop Alexander (Mileant)

In the best moments of our life, when we are inspired to live a good life, to love everyone and everything, and to do good deeds, we cannot find a more appropriate example to follow than that of our Lord Jesus Christ.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

Mid-Pentecost: “Glistening with splendor!”

Pascha and Pentecost “glisten with splendor” – what a wonderful expression!

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

The Courage to Be Human

Fr. Ted Bobosh

Jesus asks us as he asked the paralytic 2000 years ago, do you want to be made well? Are you willing to make the spiritual changes in your life to start on a new path – to start life over again? Are you willing to listen to the voice of God and walk in His ways?

[English Edition / Saints. Asceties of Piety. Church Holy Days ]

The House of Mercy

The Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. John. (5:1-15)

Fr. James Guirguis

Today’s reading paints a vivid picture of pain and suffering and the hope of healing.

[English Edition / Saints. Asceties of Piety. Church Holy Days ]

Synaxarion for the Sunday of the Paralytic

Fourth Sunday of Pascha

On this day, the fourth Sunday after Pascha, we commemorate the paralytic who was healed by the Lord, and we celebrate this as a miracle of our Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

The Empty Tomb(s)

Fr. Ted Bobosh

We have to make our churches full of God’s grace by becoming a living temple because we each are alive in Christ. Then people will not come to the church looking for the corpse of Christ, but to receive His resurrected Body.

[English Edition / Saints. Asceties of Piety. Church Holy Days ]

On the Shattering of Human Hopes

Sermon on the Third Sunday of Pascha, the Myrrh-bearing Women

Bishop Tikhon (Shevkunov) of Egorievsk

Our boldest hopes and dreams about human happiness, about our own selves, about our close ones, and about the future are all at best naiveté in comparison with what the Lord has prepared for us.

[English Edition / Homilies and Spiritual Instruction]

The Light in the Tunnel

Fr. Ted Bobosh

But to get to the Light, as we realize liturgically in the Church, we must pass through this painful and most narrow passage – the Gospel.
