[quote author=imikhail link=topic=12897.msg151875#msg151875 date=1329227643] I have read quickly through the posts on this thread .. I have noticed a common theme with discussions like this. The bottom line is that people like to to blame something …

Mina, as you know, we need what is in the hymns to understand the Bible. Without the church explaining to us how we should interpret what the Bible says, we will all come up with wrong conclusions. Knowing the hymns teaches us how to read the Bible …

[quote author=Remnkemi link=topic=12897.msg151804#msg151804 date=1329156404] May I make a comparison? Is anybody concerned that priests and bishops wear an ethnic black garb/tunic in the lands of immigration, even in public? If we are so concerned…

I'm not liking that people who don't want to spend time to learn Coptic or don't have the time are all being labeled "lazy." To this idea that making things harder is better: Why give people copies of the Bible in English? The best translation is …

Nobody wants to have their ignorance revealed! But I don't mind :P Your question: Why is Jonah called a prophet? My answer: He spoke to God and delivered His message to the people of Nineveh.

[quote author=Copticandproud link=topic=12897.msg151727#msg151727 date=1329005716] How about we keep it 50-50 and switch choirs every week? [/quote] That's not a bad idea. But I think getting the full-picture at once is better. Verses connect and t…

I think there should be a 20% Coptic and 80% English split in language in liturgical services. The 20% is enough to preserve the language and our heritage. Additionally, since it is not a great amount, people can work on learning these parts. Th…
-
Unfortunately, most of the pro-Coptic people I have encountered are this way because the hymns sound better in Coptic, not because they want to protect our heritage. They don't even understand Coptic and know very little about our history. They ju…

Of course, consult your FoC. But some pointers: 1) Start with the gospels (preferably Mark, Matthew, Luke, John) 2) Repeat readings (you should read them a couple of times) 3) Pray

"Lord Jesus, Emmanuel, our God, has never been divided in all His works, but He is one only Lord, one only nature; He has one only will; and the deity has united with the humanity as the soul unites with the flesh. This is my declaration and my conf…

Watch the sermon by Deacon Saweirus on Jonah - it is great meditation! (It is the most recent sermon.)

[quote author=Remnkemi link=topic=12881.msg151565#msg151565 date=1328627536] Ummm. Musical aptitude is not linear and not triggered later in life. We have this misconception that a child can only learn a very simple and quick hymn and then take a li…

Glad you're back, Cyril.

There's nothing wrong with your question. I think Abanoub already answered it.
-
We have asked much of you already, father, but I have one more request: Could you consider uploading your Sunday homilies for our edification? Thank you :)
-
Father, how much would it cost to sponsor a podcast? I am sure God will provide the means. May God bless your efforts 100 fold.

Yeah, they're definitely too young for Apenshois (I think) Teach them "Je Peniot"

You may want to contact a church named after St. Cyril. Hopefully their bookstore will have one. :)

If you learn how to make an "endless" style prayer rope/bracelet, please make a guide and place it on youtube and post the link on here. I too love to make prayer ropes and would like to learn how to close it in that way. Thank you :)

Dear FatherBishoyKamel, I must ask, are you Fr. Bishoy Kamel who serves in St. Marina's Church in Irvine, CA? If not, do you have this username in honor of the Late Reverend Fr. Bishoy Kamel? If yes to the latter question, I think it may be best…

From what I heard they are working on another tasbeha recording, since they recently published a new psalmodia with diff. English translations.

Lord, have mercy! May the True Physician heal her.

But if one "side" is advocating change that is not fitting for the church, how do we maintain unity without compromising what the church has taught us? If they will not relent, must we acquiesce? Or should we stand against it and cause some to leav…
