He Built This City, But He Didn’t Write the Song!

Last updated on: September 8, 2007 at 8:24 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

A friend of mine is a priest in a special Greek Church named after Mother and Son Saints: Helen and Constantine. When I say this is a special Greek Church, I don’t mean just a big temple, parking lot, annual festival and gymnasium. Of course they have all that … But, I mean they’ve got something really special … way down in the basement. I never would have believed it had I not seen it with my own eyes …... Read more

My youngest is now in Kindergarten. This morning, as she sat at table finishing her breakfast, she said: “I’ve got a secret … I’ve got a secret and I can’t tell you!” Her mother said: “You’ve got a secret? Is this something happening at school?” The 5-year old daughter said, “Yes, everybody’s doing it. But they told us not to tell!” I asked: “Is it smoking Crack?” She laughed and said, “Dad! No! It’s way more fun than that!” 🙂 Read more

Evangelical-Orthodox Novus Ordo

Last updated on: September 5, 2007 at 2:18 pm   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

The new “Liturgical Service,” as they call it, has become the most popular service even among young people. After the “standard” evangelical service at 9:30 a.m., workers decorate the platform with candles, non-specific iconography and other religious-looking items. Fitzgerald wears generic vestments and adopts a more somber manner. He reads from a liturgical book and the congregation responds by reading words on the screens. “I like the reverence and the mood,” says one girl, 16. “It feels more spiritual.” “I... Read more

The Feast of the Righteous Elizabeth

Last updated on: September 5, 2007 at 6:08 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

St Elizabeth was from the lineage of Aaron and was the sister of St Anna, the mother of the Most Holy Theotokos. She and her husband Zachariah, walking in all the commandments of the Lord (Luke 1:6), suffered barrenness, which in those times was considered a punishment from God. When Elizabeth gave birth to a son, through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit she announced that his name would be John, although no one in their family had this name.... Read more

Hayseeds, Mustard Seeds, Wolverines & Philistines

Last updated on: September 4, 2007 at 6:51 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

The University of Michigan Wolverines learned a valuable lesson on September 1, 2007: “No matter your future expectations, today ya gotta play the game.” As an Appalachian Alum, I am obviously biased. Actually that should read: “As an App Alum, I am naturally optimistic.” Look. There ain’t many spoilt rich kids at ASU. And those that think they are, compared to places like UM, just think they are. Appalachian State University is a special place, first and foremost — hideous... Read more

The Rev. Tracey Lind, dean of Trinity Cathedral in Cleveland, has accepted a nomination to become the next bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Chicago because she wants to follow God’s call. ”I believe that accepting this nomination is what God is asking of me, and I, in turn, ask your prayers for me and for our church as I strive to respond faithfully and with grace,” Lind wrote in a letter to the Trinity congregation.
