Part 2 of an “axe man movie” about the cross. This one explains what the way of the cross is. It would be good if we knew what this meant. The Lord commands us to deny ourselves, take up our cross and follow Him. It is very simple!

The best way to learn Orthodox theology along with living it, is to read our services. They are treasure trove of beautiful poetry, dogma, and Christian ethics. We go through several of the hymns of this feast, and in a few minutes discuss incarnational theology, the importance of the Theotokos, the reason why we speak of the holy Trinity so often and why it is important, why it is critical that dogmatic truths are present in prayer, how Jesus Christ saves us, and many other things.

True humility is to not trust our own opinions but always check them against those who have more wisdom than we do. Luke 19:12-28 9th Friday of St Luke or 27th Thursday after Pentecost
