The Function of Icons

Last updated on: September 16, 2007 at 6:36 pm   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Neither God nor the saints, of course, need the honor which we offer them, be it by means of icons, or by means of hymns and music. But it is only proper for us to do so, as the adoration of God and the admiration of saints are expressions of a soul that sees and loves the beauty of holiness, of spiritual perfection, and feels grateful to the Deity and to holy men for their many benefactions to mankind. Such... Read more

Moses Needs Come Down From Dat Mtn

“I guess hell froze over,” said Griffin, whose show overtook ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. “A lot of people come up here and thank Jesus for this award. I want you to know that no one had less to do with this award than Jesus.” Holding up her statuette, Griffin topped off her off-script speech by saying, “**** **, Jesus. This award is my god now.” FWIW, here’s the story. HT THUNDERSTRUCK UPDATE: Asked about her speech backstage a short... Read more

Druids & Devils, Daughters & Dads and … Dentists?

Last updated on: September 15, 2007 at 7:28 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Those who know me know I ain’t much on Halloween. I never was much on Halloween, even as a kid. It seemed a bit odd to me that perfectly normal devil-hating church folks would go all out, once a year, to root for the other side. As I popped in to Kroger the other day my eyes were accosted with the images of bogey-ness. Goblins, the living dead, spider webs, and ghoulishness everywhere. Did I mention brightly wrapped massive amounts... Read more

Making a List, Checking it Twice …

Last updated on: September 12, 2007 at 7:24 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

For if the wickedness be great and the wicked have not been requited, it is absolutely necessary that they should be requited. For if men do not overlook these things, how should God make an oversight? It is not right to trust in faith only. For it is deeds also into which that tribunal will enquire. — St John Chrysostom Thanks to FWD from Fr Josiah Trenham. Read more

In the Millennium Bazaar, a series of market stalls just behind Meskel Square in the centre of Addis Ababa, everything is stamped “2000”. From plastic bowls and key rings to packets of crisps and vases of plastic flowers, all are marketed as millennium specials. Elsewhere in the world today it is 11 September 2007. But in Ethiopia, which runs on a unique Coptic calendar more than seven years behind the Gregorian calendar, it is a far more auspicious day: New... Read more

TODAY, September 11th, is the Sixth Anniversary of those infamous acts of terrorism against our nation known simply and collectively as “9/11.” Please remember in your divine services today the innocent victims of terrorism whose lives were lost that day, their surviving family members, the injured, the first responders, and our men and women in the Armed Forces who are engaged in the ongoing war against terrorism. Taken from the Clergy Brotherhood email of the Diocese of Wichita and Mid-America. Read more
