A Lenten Book … Just in time!

Last updated on: February 27, 2008 at 9:41 pm   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

In his new book Defeating Sin Fr Joseph Huneycutt has provided us with a clear and, above all, practical framework for personal spiritual growth. It will undoubtedly become a favorite title for individual Lenten reading, although Church School teachers and youth leaders will also find Defeating Sin to include valuable material that can readily be incorporated into curricula or workshops. Fr Joseph has given us a great tool to help us in the daily task of “work[ing] out [our] own... Read more

Below, thanks to Dr. Sam Cohlmia (translator) and Bishop BASIL (sender) is a translation of the first talk St Raphael gave in America of which we have a written transcript. This talk was delivered by him on December 17, 1895, exactly one month after his arrival in America. Holy Father Raphael pray unto God for us! It is true to admit that every true mind... Read more

Troubling E-Mail … What to do?

Last updated on: February 27, 2008 at 7:50 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Forgive me. This has nothing to do with Orthodoxy, but everything to do with Internet. Does this happen to yous toos? Hello, I am John Obviouslymadeupname, and I am a highly very ranking Nigerian prince. Because of utmost strict Nigerian security and banking practices, I have found myself in possession of $50 million USD that I found in my sock drawer after a party attended by the Queen of Norway, Sigrid Formaldahyde.

It’s Beginning to Look A Lot Like LENT’S Here …

Last updated on: February 26, 2008 at 8:36 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

The following helpful hints are lifted from an email from Matushka Elizabeth Perdomo (with gratitude). After Sunday, March 2nd (Meatfare Sunday / Sunday of the Last Judgement) – no meats are eaten until Pascha; that includes beef, pork, chicken and any vertebrate animals, including fish. (Though Fish may be consumed during “Cheese Week” leading up to Clean Monday, March 10th.) For the week of Monday, March 3rd thru Sunday, March 9th (Cheesefare Sunday / The Sunday of Forgiveness) – Dairy... Read more

Protestant “Tradition” Anyone?

Last updated on: February 24, 2008 at 9:47 pm   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Citing an old post of mine dealing with the movie script from New Line Cinema’s The Nativity Story, someone posted the following comment, first quoting me and then offering their own words. I’m happy to oblige, as soon as there’s time. In the meantime, anyone want to [politely] weigh in here in the ComBox? “We all know St Joseph was old, right? He was a widower with children, a man of means, by the time he became the guardian of... Read more

REALITY: The First Step Toward Salvation

Last updated on: February 23, 2008 at 10:20 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

When I was a kid there was a TV-show that came on in our area called The Joey the Clown Show; all youngsters around the ages of 4, 5 & 6 were fans of Joey the Clown. And on each episode of The Joey the Clown Show some of the kids in the audience were seen riding on this ride consisting of airships sailing around the globe … it was a big globe and those kids held on tight to... Read more

Bishop Thomas on “Liberal Christianity”

Last updated on: February 22, 2008 at 7:50 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

The following is excerpted from an email from His Grace, Bishop Thomas (Joseph), in response to this post from Bishop Hilarion (Alfeyev).I hope that liberal Christianity does not survive for long. Quite frankly, I have a problem applying the name “Christianity” to the religious philosophy known as “liberal Christianity.” We know from the Book of Acts that “Christians” were first called by that name in Antioch. Receiving the name “Christian” implied a destiny of great glory, yet a destiny often... Read more

Balkanizing Kosovo. So?

Last updated on: February 19, 2008 at 7:13 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

It is already Sunday in Kosovo, and the Muslims have most likely declared their independence from Serbia. What a shame that our nation, especially the previous administration, has been the chief catalyst in handing over the most sacred region of Serbia to Islamic extremists that have destroyed hundreds of Church and Monasteries in the last 9 years, and murdered thousands of Orthodox Christians … More here.

Fast Forwarding & Fast Free

Last updated on: February 18, 2008 at 5:22 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Whatever calender you use, if you’re Orthodox, this is a fast free week, so that when we eat our ice cream on Wednesday and pizza on Friday we will remember that we sin like the Publican more than we fast like the Pharisee, so we should be humble like the first — and fast like the second. Next week is the last normal week till after Bright Week. Wednesday and Fridays are fast days but we can have meat the... Read more

Without Love, It’s All Just Peas & Carrots

Last updated on: February 16, 2008 at 7:25 am   By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Miss Jane gets a tongue lashing, Mr Bodine speaks in tongues. Things go dark as I interview Dr Indadark. In the end, lacking the main ingredient, it’s all just peas and carrots. Suffice it to say: Love covers a multitude of podcasts. The Orthodixie Podcast on Ancient Faith Radio. Read more
