The theory is simple. The practice is complicated. Do not seek wealth, do not love wealth. Seek God, love God. The later does not imply you cannot be wealthy. Success is essential to glorify God. But your foremost objection is to love God and radia…

Never make relationships an objective. Trust God and pray for his timing and guidance. Speaking to a spiritual father for guidance is always crucial.

You are not in his shoes. He may see a may bigger picture than you do and if you were to see with the same eyes then possibly your opinion would differ. You are entitled to your opinion, and I respect and understand your frustration. I am sure he do…

Forgive me Mina, do not jump so quickly to conclusions and say the pope does not want to see you. There is wisdom and vision to what he is doing.

@ReturnOrthodoxy You trying to get rid of me? :(

Pray first. Then go tell him all that. Him knowing that background will help him ease you to talk. I am sure your Father of confession wants nothing but the best for you and your relationship with the Lord. Sometimes if talking is too difficult for …

Having books are found in many churches. Ive attended Armenian Orthodox practice, Catholic Practice and other orthodox churches and all at least had books. The aid of a book, in my opinion, is equivalent to that of a projector (if it does not hide i…

True, you are correct, it was Apa Lot and his disciple Apa Abraam. I dont know why I had the impression it was Abba Macarius!

Tv's are the reason that we cannot follow Saint Macarius' advice: "'If you will, you can become all flame.'" (Light sarcasm intended :) )

Forgive me, but does it matter whether he be a Protestant, non-denominational or any other? From the following passage I believe to understand that we simply need to understand the person in front of us and his beliefs. St. Paul became the person in…

Advice from a monk:'Work at least 2 years before deciding to be a monk'. What can you do?Talk to your Father of Confession to establish a growing/difficult prayer and reading routine. My suggestion to you - focus heavily on loving the little annoyan…

A person will reap a lot more fruit from living a life of Obediance (not all things we obey must be logically acceptable to me) than to visit any land or touch any relics.

Kal, No one is a worthy example. Keep serving with the guidance of your Father of Confession. Hide nothing from him.

Miss u too! Understood and mostly agreed :) I guess in some sense it would be part of the rebuke. Since if we look at the definition of rebuking, my beloved google says: "an expression of sharp disapproval or criticism."In any case, the reason I li…

Ray, I must disagree with you on this one. Although I may be mistaken, but this has always been my understanding that accusations are not acceptable. Let me share my thoughts. There is one judge, and only one judge, and that is Christ. Only He can …

Well put. " If I took a survey of 100 people singing Shepherd of my soul, I would be hard pressed to find 1 person who understands the song in a corporate struggle or as a reflection of God and His Church. The use of emotional triggers excludes any…

Thank you Remnkemi, I appreciate your response. I completely agree with your statement. I simply wish to argue simply to further my understanding. If you read some of my previous posts, you will see that I completely agree, especially when it comes …

Despite with my agreement with the idea of being aware and cautious of personal emotional relationships with God, I do not believe the orthodoxy is free of it, neither would it be entirely wrong. This may be just my opinion, but seems to me we could…

Coptic Pharoah, Though I understand your statement, and I wish I could agree, I fear this type of mentality may be dangerous. Off course the unity of the churches is of extreme importance but allow me to share my disagreement with your post. Here is…

That question reminds me a bit of this discussion, its a bit long, but was quite interesting.. http://tasbeha.org/community/index.php?p=/discussion/comment/165927

Also, is there a quoting system like smf? The latest discussion on the home page also says the title of the thread and the initial poster whereas before, if I am not mistaken, it was the title and the name of the most recent replier of that thread.…

Who says that all prayers are not answered ? We could just as much say I was just to stubborn to listen. How many times does a question like this pass through our heads: 'if this was His answer, it doesn't satisfy me'? Couldn't we be sometimes to cl…

I like your question Zoxasi. Hope it becomes a fun discussion. "Faith is the evidence of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." I really believe faith is a marvelous mystery. It is essentially the exact proof of the existence of God. …
