NOITROBA: The “N” Word

Last updated on: January 22, 2010 at 4:42 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

“Ain’t Skeered!” is a Southern takeoff on the once popular “No Fear” emblems paraded on sweatshirts and automobiles. Yet, when it comes to certain words, I am afraid. We live in an age when using the wrong word could mean the end of one’s good reputation, career, or, at least, God-pleasing relations with others. It’s sort of like the ol’ joke: “What’s the last words out of a redneck’s mouth?” – “Hey y’all, watch-isss!” Our words often precede our demise.... Read more

We Came, We Saw … a Pumpkin

Last updated on: January 20, 2010 at 10:04 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

I‘m in bed, writing in my nightly journal (first house blessing – 8am, final one – 7pm), and I suddenly exclaim: “Oops! I pledged 30 posts in 30 days; I forgot to update the blog.” My wife says, “Well, you better get out there and do it … tell them I said ‘you’ve got to go to bed!'” Heh! I’m not sure that kind of chatty-diary-stuff counts as blogging. I mean, who cares? So, FWIW — and before the midnight... Read more

Orthodox Home Exorcised … on TV!

Last updated on: January 19, 2010 at 3:36 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

When I was pastor of a small Mission, one of our members thought it would be a neat idea for the local TV station to come out and cover one of our house blessings. And … the TV station agreed. Being TV and all – great publicity for our growing Mission – it was decided that members of the choir and others of the community would join in this joyous event, singing the Theophany hymn … You know, the one...

You are mad, you are not like us!

Last updated on: January 17, 2010 at 6:09 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

That saying? – A time is coming when people will go mad and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him, saying, “You are mad, you are not like us” – is attributed to St Anthony the Great. And that was 1,500 years ago! St Anthony pray to God for us! One day after a teaching on Jesus saying to the people, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to... Read more

Significance of January 16th

Last updated on: January 16, 2010 at 7:58 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Those of English heritage, bewildered by the state of the world today (in relation to religion), would do well to remember a part of our own history … On this day [January 16th] 429 years ago, the English Parliament outlawed Roman Catholicism. This 1581 statute stated that it was an “act to retain the Queen’s Majesty’s subjects in their obedience” and made it high treason to “reconcile anyone or to be reconciled to ‘the Romish religion.'” It forbade people to...

On Derision, 2 Kinds of People & Pious Thinking

Last updated on: January 15, 2010 at 12:12 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

The following quotes are from Elder Paisius the Athonite … We should neither create problems in the Church nor magnify the minor human disorders that occur, so as not to create greater evil and the wicked one rejoice. He who is irritated about a minor disorder and abruptly rushes to ostensibly correct it … resembles the light-headed sacristan who sees a candle dripping and abruptly dashes to fix it, stumbling over people and candlesticks, and thus creating an even greater...

“Holy House Blessings, Batman!”

Last updated on: January 14, 2010 at 9:08 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Uhm … just got home, 9:30 PM, from home blessings. My first home blessing was at 7:40 AM; the last blessing of the day was at 7:40 PM, followed by a big dinner. All told, I think my “home blessing tour guide” and I logged 24 houses today — and I visited one home before hooking up with her. It’s beginning to look like it’s easier to bless 25 homes in a day than it is to post 30 blog... Read more
