He was such a good preacher, at times I wish ministers who aren’t good at preaching would just use portions of his homilies. I say portions because he tended to preach at the ninth hour, using Noone as a preaching service separate from and after the liturgical synaxis, and some of his sermons are long. But some, like the Paschal homily, are extremely compact.
I only ever use his Paschal homily and the similar Paschal homily of St. Athanasius, because I have never heard a modern day priest do a better job of explaining Easter than either of them.
You know come to think of it my best friend said something similar. He inherited all the Church Father commentaries from his bishop who died a few years back. and I think he did read that sermon on one Easter/Pascha.
By the way this is his sermon video on Repentance that I posted a few places, take a look.
