I love confession. It’s not easy, but I still love how clean I feel afterward.
I like him very much. I like his style of teaching, and appreciate all that he said. Makes me want to hear more. ;)
God Bless you all my peoples
Lots of useful wisdom here.
Thank you so much.God bless you.Love from Greece.
Fr. Abbott Sergius knocks it out of the park. I want to send this to everyone in my contacts. :-)
I was Catholic but haven't recived any of the sacraments in any form for 3 years. Been away from God for awhile, but the last few months, I started to pray again and have been looking back into the Catholic church until I came across some information on the Orthodox church and now my heart desire to be part of the true faith and to be able to go to confession hits so hard sometimes, I need to confess be cleans and give my whole heart to Christ
Hello Seeker.
So pleased to read God is warming faith within you, unto Salvation.
Have you attached yourself to a parish yet?
If you want to contact me with any questions, please do, and also request Catechumen program/classes from your parish.
Read at least one chapter of a Gospel each day.
Read the lives of the Saints, especially recent ones, and may God bless and protect you
☦📿💕👍
Also be aware the nasty one/s will try nafarious or counterfeit ways to sabotage your efforts.
Stay on target ... until your last breath !!!
@katherine3486 thank you so much for reaching out, this has been a long journey for me. Sometimes having a friend that is Orthodox helps with this journey and I will be sure to respond more soon. Thank you
Thank you
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Father, I enjoyed watching your video. You are a true blessing. 🙏😇
Father, I belong to the Armenian Apostolic (Orthodox) Church and I love praying the Jesus prayer, but I also love to pray the Holy Rosary bc first of all, I love our holy Mother, the Theotokos, so very much and bc I find it very inspiring. It’s a meditative prayer as you know, like Jesus’ prayer and it’s very powerful against the Evil one bc Mary is going to crush satan’s head in the end (in the book of Genesis). As you know she appears in Medjugorie every day and she asks her children to pray the Rosary for these end of times. In the apparition of Fatima she identified herself as the Lady of the Rosary.
I also pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet which Jesus gave to St. Faustina in the 1930s, at 3:00 pm, the hour of Jesus’ death. It doesn’t matter what denomination I belong to. I believe that Christ’s Church is ONE and I’m looking for that glorious day when the churches will unite: unity in diversity.
I don’t know if you are familiar with the messages of True Life in God that Jesus has been giving to this Greek Orthodox lady, Vassula Ryden since 1985 to this day. It’s about the unity of churches. Vatican examined her writings and did not find anything against the Churches teachings, except for some denominational differences. The website is www.tlig.org.
Thank you father for feeding our minds and our souls with the heavenly manna. I did not know I should bow when praying the Jesus’ prayer. Now I know.
I care a lot for priests and I pray for them every single day. They are very special, they’re anointed. They hold Christ’s body in their hands. What a bliss!
Glory to God
Thanks for uploading this!
This is why Jesus said we must receive the Holy Spirit baptism. He leads us into all truth which is the peace of Jesus.
Thank you very much for this.
Very nice
Wonderful talk. Thank you Father Sergius! And thanks for posting Victor Lutes ^__^
I'm already feeling better just by listening this God sent video!
the entire talk I kept gazing at those beautiful icons and wondering if anyone knew whether they were Greek, Russian or what. I would like to find prints. If I could wake up to my wall looking like this it would be easier to keep Christ in my mind every minute (i am a housewife)
Thank you Blessings
The devil divides and conquers.
Good info!
29:55 A Consuming Fire 🔥
34:36 Love: Willing The Highest Good
39:34 Name The Problem
Forgive me but I do wish, with the microphones then and now, a mic could be attached to clothing so everything near the camera is not interfering with so good a homily.
Can the sound be split from the video or is there a better recording somewhere ??
So frustrating that he is so far away from the recorder ...?
Archimandrite Zacharias book "Remember Thy first love" is worth devouring ... he told me about the 3 stages during our meeting for a word at The Monastery in Essex about 18 years ago and I never forgot ... it was such a joy to see the word made into his thesis paper, then made into a book.
The point Father made about separating us from our fellows was exactly what the China virus mandate was all about, and was lies, bc the World Military Games were held in Wuhan, September, October and November 2019. .. the participants got sick and then well, and returned to their 100 plus countries and sickness from December to February gave the global nefarious agenda the excuse for separating us all. My experience confirmed the mistrust I felt about what we were being ordered to obey.
PLEASE do not allow it ever again.
Great about repression
What is the name of the patron saint of depression? Video audio is really low.
St. Tikhon of Zadonsk.
@@VictorLutes Thank you.
Which book is he showing? I can't see the cover properly
Pause video & take a screen shot.
“Remember thy First Love”
Archimandrite Zacharias
From a good Independent bookstore not Amazon or it’s subsidiary Booktopia.
where can we subscribe to the Mailing List Archimandrite was talking about?
+Bia Bichara All I can suggest is to visit their website: sttikhonsmonastery.org
I found it hard for me to focus on what he was saying because the microphone was amplifying every little noise in the room. Like chairs moving.
15:31, technology can be a good thing, but it can also be a negative thing.
He forgot to mention Ikea when listing the I's.
Did he say Patron of depression St Tikhon of Zadonsk?
He said he thinks St. Tikhon would be if we had a patron saint of depression.
St. Dymphna is also a patron saint of depression I'm told.
@@wmnoffaith1 St Dymphna (pronounced Daphne...it's Gaelic) is the patron saint of mental illnesses in general, including depression.
Depression happens from abuse.
Что со звуком?? С вашими то возможностями😂🤣😂😂
