Glad to see Fr. Luke here.
I have meet him few years ago in Orthodox mission in Albania ☦
I'm enjoying Fr. Veronis' interview.
I like how he reminds us to be "proclaimers of the Good News".
Because it is something to be happy about. ☦☦☦
Thank you father for your advice and comment and if it is Gods will i want to be a preacher of the good news
Thank you Father. I’ve been wondering about modern day Orthodox cross-cultural missions. I’ve done a lot of cross cultural mission work prior to becoming Orthodox. I’d like to learn more about what the Orthodox are doing in this regard.
Orthodoxy's resistance to cultural imperialism is something I love the most about the faith. Prostitution was near unheard of in Sub Saharan Africa until colonialism.
Are you Orthodox ?
Not sure!.,.?
What is the song at the end called?
Such a beautiful and moving message. Thanks for sharing it!
Where is Protecting Veil headquartered? Or is it only online?
Thank you Fr. Veronis. Our Orthodoxy shouldn't be used as a weapon against others, but a witness of the love of God which blesses those it touches. We also don't need to be planting a little (name your country) into a new place, but only the love of God found in Orthodoxy which can take a culture and baptise it to make it purified and more godly. Let the Kingdom of God roll forth!
