  • i agree with dzheremi and Fr. Peter people should know and have learned from their parents the responses to the liturgy yes, technology is making us lazy! why does everything have to be easy at church? it may seem like its a no-brainer to some, but …
  • wow thanks a lot! may I ask where you got this from?
  • Let me answer your questions with more questions... how can we dare to eat or drink in the House of God, standing before His Holy Throne upon the Altar? When we stand before God, especially in Church, we must respect our surroundings and realize th…

  • first of all, WELCOME TO TASBEHA!!! and to answer your question: In the Holy Liturgy, during the readings, the deacon should be holding BOTH the Cross and the Gospel while responding inaudibly to the priest's litanies as they go around the Holy Alt…
  • in the words of Abba Arsanious: If God allowed me to see my own sins, three or four men would not be enough to weep over them. we must hate the sin by loving God as Father Peter said. please pray for me and my weakness.
  • Our Lord tells us a great parable about this type of thing in Luke 15 in the parable about the prodigal son.  the son (us humans) wasted all his time and efforts into useless things that made him much worse than he was. so he realized his sin and re…
  • ??? huh?

  • we may not be alive to see the light of the morning tomorrow, so lets focus on today and what we can do NOW! God bless
  • but its hard not to complicate prayer! just think about it.. when we pray we are speaking to THE Almighty God, the Creator, the Saviour, the Comforter! imagine speaking to any king here on earth.. it would be quite nerve racking because you wouldnt …

  • great post childoforthodoxy! waterandspirit, I have a question for you. I'm not sure what exactly you are confused about. It is a historical fact that Jesus lived and was crucified (even atheists will admit this). His disciples believed that He was…
  • wow cool story, God Bless!
  • well i never try to push my own agenda if thats what u mean... I do try to get the kids closer to God and to love Him more, but i feel like im failing at it. they are harder to deal with with every passing class and i feel like they just dont care a…

  • but how will i know is service is right for me or not? what if serving is causing these kids to stumble? we already know that servants will receive a stricter judgement.
  • we must examine ourselves first and foremost, and when we know that we are unworthy and that we do not deserve the Great Blessing and Eternal life given to us then we must approach The Holy One for Him to make us holy!
  • "Repentance turns adulterers into virgins" My priest told me once that virginity is not only physical but it is spiritual as well. for example if someone who has never actually committed the physical act of fornication, but is always looking at the…
