On Holding the Tongue

Last updated on: November 6, 2009 at 9:38 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

The Lord will protect your soul so long as you hold your tongue. Do not say more than necessary; much talking drives away the Holy Spirit. Learning to be silent is a great undertaking. In remaining silent, you emulate our Lord, Who “… answered nothing, so that Pilate marveled…” (Mark 15:5). — Elder Andronicus of Glinsk You need to strive more to be silent. Vacuous people talk a great deal. If you say little, people will listen to your words.... Read more

Man Says He Saw Jesus in Truck Window

Last updated on: November 5, 2009 at 5:57 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. – Jim Stevens said he’s not particularly religious and is clueless about why an image resembling Jesus Christ keeps appearing on his pickup. Stevens, of Jonesborough, said nearly every morning, an image that looks to him like the face of Jesus Christ has appeared in the condensation on the driver’s side window of his Isuzu truck. A Johnson City Press photo of the truck showed a facial image. Stevens said when he first saw the image, he... Read more

The Proverbial Road to Hell

Last updated on: November 4, 2009 at 6:08 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

How many utopias, radical movements, revolutionary programs, and the like the world has seen, the leaders and participants of which have wanted to attain human “happiness” without God and against God, relying on their fallen reason. History maintains the sad and tragic memory of this. Individuals, too, blinded by unbelief, wanting to fulfill intentions that seemed good to them, have often caused evil and pain to those around them. Faith is necessary, but it must be correct faith. Error and... Read more

OPINION: Is the Pope Anglican?

Last updated on: November 2, 2009 at 6:02 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Moving this posting back up top … for All Saints pics: click. From time to time a matter of serious import derails the normally bizarre nature of the Orthodixie Podcast. This episode addresses one of those occasions. Recently, Pope Benedict the 16th caused no small stir in ecclesiastical waters, which rippled into much electronic chatter on the Internet. The Vatican recently announced that Pope Benedict is setting up special provision for Anglicans, including married clergy, who want to convert to... Read more

THIS IS THE HEAD … Hello everybody! The Lord and Saints … (it’s the annual “All Saints Party” at St George). And this, so I hear, is a 70s Guitar Man … Of course, pie eating contest … St George attacks a dragon … This pie … attacks this guy. “What? You think that’s funny?” “I thought it was pretty funny … then I had to make a pit stop.” Texas is pretty this time of year. This, ladies and... Read more

Halloween Hypocrite (Revisited)

Last updated on: October 29, 2009 at 8:54 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

The following is timely a repost from 2005. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not opposed to fantasy, games, dress-up, and such. And if you promise not to tell anyone: I’ve read most everything Stephen King has written. Harry Potter? Used to be opposed, now I’ve read ’em all. I’m just not interested in celebrating this feast. I did as a kid. It was a parent thing. (Hi Mom!) That and, well, a candy thing. When I got older I was... Read more

Five Types of Christians

Last updated on: October 28, 2009 at 4:09 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Mother Maria Skobtsova, a martyr of the Nazi concentration camps, and an early 20th century intellectual and nun, wrote an insightful essay entitled, “Types of Religious Life.” In it she articulates five ways of being religious: the synodal, the ritualist, the aesthetical, the ascetical as well the ideal way, the evangelical (or “way of the Gospel.”). While it is easy to point fingers and categorize certain churches or groups as this or that, what’s really interesting (and frightening!) is how... Read more

ESOLEN: The Battle Before Us

Last updated on: October 25, 2009 at 10:28 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Ladies and gentlemen, the hour is late. The biotechnocracy is coming upon us, ready to sweep aside the last remnants of a truly human community. One thing that has confirmed me in my adherence to Roman Catholicism is that, virtually alone for many years, and still virtually alone for some issues, Rome has stood against the reduction of human sexuality to will, even the will of faithful spouses. Because of the separation of grace from the rationally discoverable natural law... Read more
