How can I not be depressed by the insanity that is happening in my nation the United States of America? We were able to defeat atheist Marxist socialism only to have it infest our present society. How can I not grieve?
The truth is that not a single day goes by without blessings.
δοξα σοι ο θεος δοξα σοι
I am Protestant but I love my orthodox brothers and sister Peace and love from our Lord Jesus Christ and God the father ❤️
I’m Catholic but love listening to the elders for deeper wisdom.
Για σου πατέρα μας Ιωσηφ λεβέντη
Άγιος των ημερών μας!!! Ποσο τυχεροί είμαστε που υπάρχουν τέτοια βίντεο- ντοκουμέντα!!!
Thanks for the pep talk grandpa in christ 😭
Wow. He just put all my thoughts in order ! I realized a little while ago that we are constantly bombarded with temptation to sin of all sorts..i didnt know how we are supposed to fight all that. Makes total sense. God Bless everyone.
Thank you, what a great message. And wow, the Greek byzantine chanting is beautiful. It gave me goosebumps and shivers.. I believe this is the translation: "Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down death by death, and to those in the tombs, granting life."
This sermon has encouraged me to continue to study the HOLY BIBLE prayerfully and continue with the JESUS PRAYER.
I am in need of medicine such as this! Lord, Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner!
No joke, converting to Christianity was amazing for my mental health. Baptized Orthodox last year
How empowering!
He’s truly guided by the Holy Spirit, he knows what he’s saying and I can relate. God bless him and everyone
i don't understand everything he said but it helped.
This has to be the Christian Yoda 🙏❤
00:21 Yes, indeed, dispiritedness will lead to depression, and even mental disorders… If Bruce Jenner, for instance, would reclaim his sexuality, he would finally find peace… …Would that our charismatic pastors in the pulpits possessed the wisdom and saintliness of the Orthodox brethren!

Here's the anecdote to my Catholic-guilt-ridden upbringing.
This is like the antidote to the mental issues I was facing, this is a gift worth more than any medication. thank you +++
Wow. I have no words other than immense gratitude for sharing this powerful message with us all.
What's the name of that glorious picture at the end of the video?
This is how we fight the enemies attacks. We feed the spirits inside of us, nourish them with what they love, & they will take up arm's on our behalf.
God have mercy on us! I'm grateful to Christ for the spirit he gives me in moments of despair. I needed these words now more than ever.
Батюшка излучает свет и доброту.
Where can I find the picture at the end?
