Homily for the Sunday of Adoration of the Holy Cross — March 31, 2019 / March 18, 2019
The epistle today exhorts us: "Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace". Where does this boldness come from? The Gospel today explains: we must choose to take up our cross and follow Christ. We look at the readings today, and the hymn of the cross that we sing when we make prostrations: "Before Thy Cross, we bow down and worship O master, and Thy holy Resurrection we glorify!", in light of two spiritual principles: "first the cross then the resurrection", and "first obedience and then following, understanding". Exaltation of the Precious Cross. Hebrews 4:15-16 Mark 8:34-35,9-1 2019-03-31

ST NI
st-nicholas-the-wonderworker-holiness
Homily on the feast day of St. Nicholas, focusing on his holiness and how his life shows us the very image of good things to come without shadow. We discuss why the beatitudes from St. Luke are read on his feast day rather than the usual selection for hierarch. Also, we look at a selection from Hebrews, which was supplanted by usual epistle reading for St. Nicholas on his feast day, but actually describes his greatest virtues and what should be our destiny also extremely well. Luke 6:17-23, Hebrews 10:1-18 2019-12-19

“YE
“ye-are-in-our-hearts-to-die-and-live
In this excerpt from 2 Corinthians 7:1-10, the Apostle Paul speaks from the heart, about the heart, and teaches the core of all ministry. If we have God in our heart, although He is bigger than our heart, there is still room for everyone we meet, and teach, and suffer with and for. He also teaches us that we should not fear suffering or repentance, as modern man does. We can fulfill this teaching if we pursue God in the heart. This is the key.
12th Thursday after Pentecost 2 Corinthians 7:1-10

22ND
22nd-sunday-after-pentecost-november-17
The DOGMA of the Holy Eucharist is clearly explained in the Sixth Chapter of John.
SYNOPSIS: Does the Bible teach about Holy Communion? We examine the clear teaching in John Chapter 6. We talk about signs, and symbols, and controversy about the Holy Eucharist, which is directly addressed by Jesus, the progression that must be present in the spiritual life, and what to do about the mundane, and how to work the works of God. Everything is important. This homily could serve as one of the essential topics that must be understood in any catechesis for inquirers into the Orthodox Christian Church. 2019-11-17

FIFTH
fifth-sunday-after-pentecost-july-21
Romans 10: 1-10, Matthew 8:28-9:1 Three rhetorical questions are asked in today’s readings that we must strive to answer.
“Who will ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above)”
“Who will descend into the abyss? (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead)”
“What have we to do with you, Jesus, you Son of God?”
Paul points out the insufficiency of the Law for salvation. Only Jesus saves, not any rule of life. To come to salvation requires struggle, and a daily effort to rid ourselves of the distraction and spiritual blindness of sin, which keeps us from realizing the intimate presence of God in our hearts.
