    Relics of our holy saints discovered in Church of St. Thomas destroyed by ISIS

    I have no idea why this is only coming up now (the events described in the story itself occurred in April), but the pan-Syriac group I am a part of on FB just posted about the discovery of various saints' relics in the now-destroyed Church of St. Thomas (Mar Toma) in ISIS-occupied Iraq.

    Mutual Support for Disabled and/or Homebound Orthodox Christians

    Through the prayers of our holy fathers, Lord, have mercy on us. Due to disability, I am unable to attend Divine Services in person. I also know firsthand how it is to be "different" in church, and to have a priest who does not seem to know how to provide guidance and support in this...

    An idea related to Mary and the Saints in Heaven

    Romans 8:26 New Catholic Bible 26 In the same way, even the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with sighs that cannot be put into words. It is true that Mary like us is a creation. I am thinking, The Holy...

    What does it look like not to judge our brother?

    NOTE: Though my faith icon or whatever we call it now says I'm Catholic, I still consider TAW my home forum, if I'm still welcome here. Soooo just what the title of this thread says. What does this look like in action? We are all to consider ourselves the chief of sinners (1 Tim 1:15), there is...

    The real root of the song "When the Saints Go Marching In"

    Today is Mardi Gras, and I'm sure that today and since Epiphany, partygoers in New Orleans have been pumped up by uplifting, swinging jazz music, like "When the Saints Go Marching In." But today I learned the root of this song, isn't so upbeat and happy. The song, "When the Saints go Marching...

    Decoding MYSTERY - with Jesus' words

    Hi there, So I had a brilliant flash of understanding, relating to MYSTERY (in internet terms: the "shouting" of MYSTERY!). It says in Revelation 18:7 "I sit as queen, and am not alone and shall not see sorrow" - which is a direct correlation with John 10:10 "the thief does not come forth, but...
