Fr. Anthony talks with Fr. Gregory Jensen about his most recent "" substack article, "."  The idea is that our lives are superficial and unlikely to lead to the kind of healing and growth that we are called towards.  They also discuss a great irony: those who seem most motivated to move towards depth (the rigorists and gerundists) do it in a way that only increases the problem because they get distracted by the forms rather than inward discernment and change.  The answer to superficiality is 1) to become part of the Orthodox Church and 2) to immerse oneself in the (seemingly...

Ten Commandments of Chanting   Bring and maintain peace in the kliros.  It’s a witness of cooperation, harmony, and reverence – nothing else belongs there (any more than it does in the altar or nave). Come early and be prepared.  This is especially true if you are reading an epistle.  Prayer is part of the preparation.  Spend time with the priest before the service to compare notes/get on the same page (and get a blessing). Our ears are more important than our voices.   Make the hand-offs sound like you are part of the same team, not separate or...

Homily - Light show art Homily - Light

OrthoAnalytika

2 Corinthians 4: 6-15. What is the light that God brought into the world? What did it do for the world? For mankind? The light is both the revelation itself and the very thing that grants the ability for it to be revealed. The revelation itself is the logic, beauty, and love that is the world’s foundation and driving law. And it must be admitted that such an underlying order is necessary for revelation: nothing intelligible can be revealed and understood if it has no logic or meaning. Chaos cannot be revealed, only endured: there is no sense to it. But in addition to creating the thing that...

Galatians 6:11-18. In today's episode, Fr. Anthony jokes that this homily might get him fired. He drew on St. John Chrysostom’s homily on these verses to make the case that what Circumcision is to Judaizing, Nationalism is to Babel. Both the Jewish law AND the division of people into nations have lost their justification thanks to the Incarnation and Pentecost. (Note: both Judaizing and ethnophylatism are heresies). Even though his point could have been made in half the time, and he gets lost in the weeds a few times, he made some important points, glory to God!  Enjoy the show!
