Just curious what you all think of the idea that global warming is punishment for our sin of neglecting the environment. Whether you interpret that literally or metaphorically, I think it rings true. With all this heat lately, i can't help but wonder if it is a way of God telling/warning us to stop.

Many years to our newly illumined brother in Christ, Joseph and his family! :liturgy: I figured since he was chrismated on the same day that I was (Sunday after Pentecost), and shares the same patron saint as I (St. Joseph the Betrothed), that it is my responsibility to give a shout out...

Ok, as requested, here is TAW's very first and official zombie thread! :waaah::waaah::waaah::waaah::waaah::waaah::waaah::waaah::waaah: (although I put a stamp in the other one, i didn't really mean it ;) ) so what is your favorite zombie film and why? Anyone see the walking dead tv series...

Ok, so i've been Orthodox for about a year now, and have been in the church off and on for about 3. Someone said something today that struck me as true. In essence, it was this: Orthodox people they know are real, not fake. They don't put on a face. So what do you all think about this...

Anyone know of anywhere that broadcasts (at least audio) of daily vespers or other prayer services on a daily basis? I know places that do DL on Sundays, but it would be really nice to have daily prayer broadcasts for those who aren't able to make it to vespers on a consistent basis.

Just curious if anyone has any experience with the corps, or who has a good friend or family member who has participated in it? I'm trying to get general feedback from people who/are involved with the program. TIA! :wave:

Hi folks :wave: I'm wondering if anyone knows if masses are ever performed anymore using those composed by Bach (or perhaps another classical composer?) I have seen several recordings of his pieces, but never within the context of the mass itself. So I guess my question is, are these still...

Just thought i'd make a thread for those who sing in their church choir to talk about "choir stuff" :cool:. So first of all, who's in the choir, and what part do you sing? What do you like about it? What don't you like about it? Any other general discussion related to choir is welcome! :thumbsup:

This is for the philosophy buffs out there, past present and future ;) I found an interesting podcast which compares some similarities and differences between Plato's teachings on God and Orthodoxy. Plato On God As Person - The Saint Katherine College Forum - Ancient Faith Radio

Ok, let's do this! :D Reason #1: It's a great way to learn new recipes! :thumbsup:

This just in...I put a question mark in the title because this is still early news, and not 100% confirmed. But if it is true, what wonderful news! :clap: ekathimerini.com | Turkey to reopen Halki seminary, Obama says also here (in Greek): http://www.romfea.gr/ EDIT: this looks pretty...

I listened to a podcast by Fr. Hopko last night, and he said that as Orthodox Christians, we haven't abolished nor moved the Sabbath, and still should observe it on Saturday. Yet, he did say that Sunday is of course the Lord's day, and the day when we gather together to worship and celebrate the...

Hi, I was hoping to get more details about Fr. Luigi, and this movement he has founded. I found these links: Luigi Giussani - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Communion and Liberation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Is anyone here a supporter of this movement? I'm having difficulty...

IRAQ Series of attacks in Iraq, dozens of dead. Church of St Mathew in Baghdad targeted - Asia News Lord have mercy on the persecuted Christians in Iraq and throughout the Middle East! :crosseo:

Does anyone have one of these at their parish or know of one? Recently a deacon and his wife who lead a burial community at Holy Ascension Orthodox Church in South Carolina have written a handbook entitled “A Christian Ending” on this subject. A Christian Ending I think is sounds like a great...

So how do you all understand this passage "I believe in one holy, catholic, and apostolic Church?" How do you think those who formulated the creed (Nicene Fathers) understood it?

He tells the story of his journey to Orthodoxy with his wife and 3 children. Very interesting! :thumbsup: General Hospital - Roads From Emmaus - Ancient Faith Radio
