Listen to and read sermons from our clergy to deepen your understanding of the Orthodox Christian faith.
Fr. Peter James
The Word of God is a door that opens before us a vision into the spiritual reality that is present in all things. And as we look through this door, we are confronted as always by two deeply opposing worlds. Today we heard the Gospel account of Christ's healing of the possessed child.
Fr. Peter James
The sea is a beautiful and tremendous force. Its depths are unknown. Its surface can take us where we need to go. Its waters sustain us. But if we are not careful, it can carry us away, and we become lost. In last week's Gospel, we considered the mystery of bread, which is the Word and the presence of Christ in our lives. We gather each week and stand quietly, alone or with family, every morning and evening, to anchor ourselves in God through prayer. Today's Gospel gives us something to consider as we struggle to live in the presence or God amidst a busy sea of distractions.
