So many Orthodox Fathers have such an amazing presence. Often, you can pick up their reverence and fear of God through the screen. Father Lynch is certainly one of these wonderful priests, what a blessing it is to be able to hear him talk from across the world! Love and appreciation from Denmark 🇩🇰
I absolutely agree. God bless!
Same from Bahrain. 🇧🇭
It’s the prayer
God gives grace
I totally agree
About a year ago I reached out to Fr. Zechariah, asking if he could recommend a parish where I was living. He did, so I visited on a weekday and met with the priest, who Fr. Zechariah knew from seminary; it was my first experience in an Orthodox Church. It was amazing. Coming from hyper-charismatic Evangelicalism, it was a shock - a beautiful, wonderful, awe-inspiring shock.
Through what can only be described as divine intervention, I found myself at a Russian parish a couple weeks later as it was closer to my home. I began attending in July and was Baptized last Friday into the Orthodox Church, receiving the Holy Eucharist on Lazurus Saturday.
I do thank God for Fr. Zechariah, he helped me begin my journey into the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church.
Glory to God!
So happy for you. ❤

Such a sweet and humble man. Christ is among us. Glory to God!
All priests featured on this channel are an inspiration, but I´m drawn to Father Lynch - there is a sincerity, humility, and honesty in his words, that touch me deeply. Thanks for sharing your words of wisdom with us.
Call no man on earth father.... except these guys cause they tell me they are holy!
@@randomCHELdad learn proper bible hermeneutics
@@randomCHELdad you dont think Orthodoxy, in its rich 2000 year long history, has an answer to this?
@@randomCHELdad can we call our biological father, father? or do we have to say dad? But wait those two words mean the same thing.
@@randomCHELdad and Paul says we have many guides but few fathers? hm. Paul must be wrong i guess
I'm a protestant really debating converting to Orthdoxy. Your channel is very helpful, thank you.
God bless you on your spiritual journey!
Are there any orthodox churches near you? If so, you should contact the priest and talk with them. It's what I did.
The Church is awaiting you with open arms.

Amazing to think you went to Ukraine with your parents that were evangelical Christian going to Ukraine as missionaries. God works in mysterious ways! Now you are an Orthodox Priest!! We have to realize, God uses all things to guide and direct our lives:) Thank you Fr for your presence on Utube! This will reach thousands of people!🙏❤️
Thank you for bringing back Fr. Zechariah. He comes across as such a humble and compassionate man in these videos and it's very inspiring.
I love this man. Thank you 🙏.
Me too ❤
I hope to be as faithful and humble as this man
I’m exploring orthodoxy and have watched SOOOO many videos about orthodoxy and this is easily one of the best. Thank you 🙏🏼☦️
God bless you Father and God bless Roots of Orthodoxy!!!
Thank you Fr. Zechariah for all you're wisdom, humility, meekness, love for Christ and truth for the Orthodox faith. Truly a God fearing man who we are grateful for. God bless you and your family!
Love Father Lynch! He has an excellent blog. ❤
When worship becomes likes and dislikes it becomes self help with Jesus… WOW!! He said that perfectly
God bless you father you and your family ☦️☦️☦️☦️☦️
Thank you father and Roots of Orthodoxy 🙏🏽I enjoyed this video very much.
Greetings Fr. Lynch my new friend. So much respect for your roll. Everyone should visit the humble parish in Pueblo.
I love this channel so much. These holy guys are so infectious with their energy and knowledge, after a week I was already adapting to their calmness in real life🙏
I love Fr Lynch. He sheds tears whenever he speaks about Christ, which is very touching. I wish I could visit him and his church some day 🙏
Father Zechariah, every word was valuable, but u must thank you for your words about St. Seraphim in Russia under the soviets as well as your words about the situation of the Church in Ukraine and those who bravely continue to speak truth such as Met. Onoufry. A time of great suffering for the Truth.

I find this channel so useful. I grow up in an Orthodox Church in Ethiopia. As a grow older I had a lot of questions and since questions where not encouraged, I joined other faith, explored different cultures and faith but deep inside I always felt some void. When I got married and have kids I needed to decide what faith I want to teach my kids and that is when I decided to come back to orthodox. But the challenge has been finding good teachings like this channel to teach my husband and children who don’t speak Amarich. Thank you for this!
Don’t see the first book mentioned in the description but for others: St. Dimitry of Rostov: Spiritual Guidance on the Christian Path
A truly stoic finish to this interview
Thank you for the insight.❤
Reading the book now. Truly beautiful and a blessing, just as all of Father’s writings are. A blessed Pascha to all this week!
Amen! Bless you Father
I needed to hear this right at this moment. Bless you Father and thank you, Lord!
I love you brother beloved ☦️
Thankkkk uuuuuu forrr everything ur doing , here in Ethiopia , grew up as a Protestant ,but u guyss ❤❤
Христос Воскресе!
Vaistinu Vaskrse Hristos!
God bless everyone
My gosh that passage at the end almost had me in tears. Such a beautiful insight to Christianity.
Father thank you so much for this edifying speech i love you so much god bless you ☦💚 in christ
I sent Father Zachariah a message on Facebook after watching this video but then realized his last post was in like 2013 so I doubt he’ll see what I said there lol. I won’t retype the whole message here cuz it was a long one but I just want to say this. Thank you for this video. It really resonated with me and experiences I have going on in my life right now. I’ve been exploring Christianity heavily recently and this video helped confirm that orthodoxy just makes sense to me. Thank you for this video and god bless you 🙏

@28:50 Challenging one's ego so that it is not about what we like or dislike? I came to that conclusion three and a half years ago. A corollary of that conclusion is that people would sooner eat broken glass than conceding to do something that they do not like with someone whom they “love”, like going to a concert of classical music.

He sounds like H. Jon Benjamin. Voice of Bobs Burgers and Dr. Katz son.

Wisdom is the fear of God
There are different perspectives. Here, in Eastern Europe, we have a different view of the Orthodox Church - strong national-ethnic ties, entanglement in politics, communist apparatus, cooperation of clergy with the political police, denunciations, currently support for Putin's policy, support for military aggression, alliance of throne and altar, caesaropapism level high... Not only the beauty/correctness of worship is important - "you will recognize them by their fruits..."
можно сказать, recycling - это от сатаны😂
Is there a big difference between Russian & Greek Orthodox?
Exactly the same dogma, no difference. The differences are in liturgy, hymns. All Eastern Orthodox Churches, Greek, Russian, Antiochean, Serbian.... are exactly the same in terms of dogma. Differences in language, hymns...only.
I have been a Greek Orthodox and lately I have been challenge by my church when i ask why do we pray to the mother of Our Lord JESUS by calling her o holy mother of God save us no answer only one priest here in Phoenix where I live told me it is wrongly written
Dear brother/sister in Christ. To enlighten your mind please see my response below:
1. No one is closer to our savior Jesus Christ more than his Holy mother, the Virgin Mary. She is the pure vessel and is virgin before and after giving birth.
2. No one is worthy than her to intercede for us. She knows her son more than anyone else. He lived with her for 30 years before starting his teaching.
3. She is the pillar of our faith. So if you don't ask for her intercession, you are missing out of her blessing.
4. She is the mother of all generations, Luke 1:46-56.
5. Please read John 2:1-11, wedding at Cana Galilee which clearly shows whatever she asks for us, Christ will give us according to his plan. At the wedding the groom didn't ask her for wine but she knew that they ran out of wine and asked her son, and he responded to her intercession in a profound way.
6. Christ while he was on the cross, he cared for his loving mother who was grieving while looking at her son going through excruciating agony and pain for our salvation. So, he gave her to his beloved disciple, John.
7. She had played a great role for our salvation. So who would be praised more than her after God.
8. She is very humble, unlike Eve, the Holy Virgin Mary called herself maidservant but Eve ate the fruit to be like God which made them to get kicked out of Garden Eden.
My beloved friend, please read Orthodox books about her. She is so sweet and very loving. She knows our challenges and asks her son before we ask him. She is the only human being who defied any form of sin as the Holy Spirit guarded her, she had a free will like all of us, but remained pure and holy and was found worthy to bear God on womb. The heavens and earth can not hold him but the Holy Virgin Mary carried him on her womb for 9 months. How beautiful is this !!!
Oh, I wish I could say more about her!!!! But the books in the world won't be enough to write about her. I would also recommend you read the book of Revelation, St. John talks about her in a mystical way.
May she open your mind.
Sisterly love from Eritrean and Ethiopian Orthodox Christian believer.
You fell to the typical Protestant slur that is result of their ignorance of the ancient Christianity. St. Paul, for example, has no problem with saving people (verses below). We all know that he can't save anybody on his own, but he is a God's vessel, used by God to perform Church's work on earth on His behalf. Through Grace of God, Saints are our helpers, like those 4 men who carried paralyzed man through the roof before lowering him in front of the Lord (Mark 2,3-11).
(Rom 11,13) For I speak to you Gentiles; inasmuch as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry, 14 if by any means I MAY provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and SAVE SOME OF THEM.
(1 Corinthians 9,22) to the weak I became as weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men, THAT I MIGHT by all means SAVE SOME.
I love everything he said, even as a Presbyterian, but-
Regarding the recent incident about the shirtless man opening the conference.... that was NOT a Protestant event. That was a Charismatic Evangelical Modern Contemporary Big Church style event.
Sorry but I don't understand your comment. If the charismatic Evangelical is not Protestant, what is it?
Charismatic Evangelicalism is an offshoot of Lutheran Pietism.
Why do Orthordox Priests have big beards? Is it compulsory?
It is customary (perhaps recommended) but is up to their bishop.
Because without a beard, the bread in the toaster will never transform into toast
Men of God have beards, because God had a beard.
It's a custom and a (small t) tradition. Most do, but some don't.
@@nickolaskara3723
It's actually against the Canons for a Priest to shave his Beard.
Some Bishops bent this Canon in the 20th Century so that the Orthodox could look more like Protestants and Roman Catholics.
Why would you pray to a man when you can go directly to the throne of God yourself. This is religion not a relationship with Jesus christ.
Thanks!
Thank you! God bless
