A sober reminder this Christmas that the bishop/abbot in this video, Metropolitan Arseniy, has been in a detention center for 18 months after being arrested by Ukrainian authorities on “suspicion” of being a Russian agent. He has stomach cancer and needs urgent heart surgery.

It was an honor to be joined by Greek, Ukrainian, and Russian Orthodox clergy and parishioners to stand against the imprisonment of Orthodox Christians in Ukraine. Everyone should agree that religious persecution is unacceptable and the United States should not be giving funding to any countries that are engaged in it. We were also joined by @RepVanOrden and @RepEliCrane !

An absolutely incredible miracle story from an Orthodox Priest… If God reveals Himself so explicitly through Orthodoxy, why would anyone not convert? MILLIONS will be baptized 🤲🏽☦️

A young woman asked me today: “Father, I’m on antidepressants, I go to therapy, I work out, I meditate… and I still feel dead inside. What should I do?” I answered her: “My child, you’re washing the face of a corpse and wondering why it doesn’t smile. Only the One who died and rose again can give you life from His own life.”

The evil one works overtime, especially during great and holy lent. So too, should your prayer. The Jesus prayer needs to be playing in your head on a loop. Repent and pray often.

Memory Eternal to the woman (Anna) who said hello to me and welcomed me when I walked into an Orthodox Church for the first time. “Our God is the God of salvation, and the pathways leading forth from death are those of the Lord’s Lord.” -Psalm 67

“When a person with the cooperation of grace rediscovers the state of Adam before the Fall, the animals recognize this state and run to him like they used to do with Adam.” + Elder Arsenios the Cave Dweller Fr. Nikolaj of Hilander Monastery on Mt. Athos, Greece.

Theosis: the journey of the soul towards the uncreated light In a bustling city, Maria, a young lawyer, felt an inexplicable void in her soul. One evening, while wandering the streets, she was drawn to the quiet of an old church. Inside, an old priest with kind eyes greeted her. "What troubles you, child?" he asked. Maria opened her heart, telling him about her restlessness. The priest smiled understandingly. "Your soul yearns for God," he said. "Let Him transform you." In the following weeks, Maria learned to pray with her heart, not just with her lips. Her tears of repentance gradually turned into tears of joy. One morning, while praying, a brilliant light enveloped her. She felt a profound peace and overwhelming love. "This is just the beginning," the priest told her. "Continue to open your heart. God calls you to an ever-deeper union with Him." Maria's life became a living testimony of divine transformation, inspiring all those around her to seek their own path to deification.

WOW! A new miracle that just happened in Romania! Right after the proclamation of 16 new saints by the Romanian Orthodox Church, the icon of Saint Arsenie Boca, revered for his spiritual guidance and miracles during his life, began to shine with an intense, divine light for a few seconds! This miraculous event took place right outside the church, witnessed by many. It's like Saint Arsenie himself was giving a heavenly nod to his canonization. This is not just a sign, it's a spectacle of faith and divine approval. The energy and awe from this moment are truly indescribable! #MiracleInRomania #SaintArsenieBoca #DivineLight

“When a person receives the Holy Communion, the grace of the Eucharist extends to their entire family, to both the living and the departed. The grace received through Communion is so great that, no matter how sinful a person may be, if they come to the Lord who redeems us all with the humble awareness of their great sinfulness, even if they are covered from head to toe in the wounds of sins, they will be cleansed by the grace of Christ, becoming more and more radiant, fully illuminated, and they will be saved.” Saint Seraphim of Sarov

Dostoevsky says the soul is healed by being with children, because we experience what we were and what we ought to be now. For children everyone is their friend, and no one is their enemy. Meanwhile we are stuck in the opposite. We must become like children again through Christ.
