Update. No need to keep searching. Trisagionfilms has a video. It's about 6 minutes shorter than this one, but it's thorough. If there are others, I'm sure they are all good. This was a Holy and failthful man indeed! I have to wonder if we're about to experience the same thing in America that Russia did almost a hundred years ago. "God forbid!" Although we all say this, I'm sure St. Luke did, too, but this is what happens when your own country has removed itself so far from God, and our government is certainly repeating history all over again. We as Orthodox Christians can not afford to keep silent. We must also be a light to other Christian believers and teach them, if they'll listen, that war is *not* the answer. We must be diligent in fighting the good fight through prayer, fasting and giving to others in the same way that he did. It doesn't have to be newsworthy, and it doesn't have to be financial or even hospitality if some people are concerned about their safety. Just calling a shut-in and reading to him/her can work wonders for that soul. There are so many people who feel helpless because of our situation, especially with the collapse of the dollar being eminent. If we work together to do many little or simple things to build each other up and secure each other, all those little contributions can add up to something much, much bigger. St. John Chrisostom summed it all up at the very end of his life by saying "Glory to God for all things." Will we follow his lead?
I really want to know if there's another video like this in English. I've checked this and the other one by another Orthodox video channel, and there's no English translation accompanying this video. Could you please investigate and upload if you find one? Also, please note that I'm blind, so I can only listen to these precious videos. Thank you so much. Heather
