Thank You Father!!! Yes, 14 is a lot but every single second was edifying. I was born into Presbyterian (Calvinism) but it never filled "the hole in my soul" . I have been seeking for most of my 62 years and found Orthodoxy roughly 4 years ago. Initially the fasting of more than 50% of the year scared me off. Eventually I tried it anyway and found the spiritual rewards of prayer, fasting and giving alms. A spiritual life that has no "cost" is rather empty. Very soon I will become a catechumen and your teaching was integral to that decision. I have gotten more from your lessons than any other teacher in my journey so far. Many many Thanks Father!!!!
It was a very useful course, thank you :) I actually began to listen to see a difference between catholic and orthodox catechumenate, but these lectures are full of interesting facts. About grace, Trinity or prayers
I trust Fr Jerome Sanderson, though his book on him is hard to find. Otherwise, just stick with the original sources: his life and sayings in the Lives of the Desert Fathers and the Sayings of the Desert Fathers.
I made it, I watched them all. Praise be to God
Father Bless you! I’ve expanded by library so powerfully from your talks! 🙏🙏🙏
