More on the Peaceful Parish …

Last updated on: November 10, 2007 at 4:10 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

My predecessor of Thrice-Blessed Memory, Metropolitan ANTONY, told me the following story: A restless and impatient priest came to him one day and said: “Your Eminence, Why don’t you assign me to a peaceful parish?” The bishop said to him: “Son, I have assigned you to so many parishes, but it seems that you cannot last in any parish. I am going to give you a new parish. Take this address, go to Third Avenue, grab a cab and give... Read more

The Spirit & the Body

Last updated on: November 8, 2007 at 8:28 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Why are you astonished since the Holy Spirit is simultaneously with us and in the heavens, and the Body of Christ is in the heavens and with us? Heaven gained a Holy Body, and the earth received the Holy Spirit. Christ came down to earth and brought here the Holy Spirit, and ascended into heaven taking with Him our Body. — St John Chrysostom Thanks to FWD from Fr Josiah Trenham. Read more

The Golden Compass & Paradise Lost

Last updated on: November 6, 2007 at 9:49 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Y‘all’ve no doubt heard about the new kids’ fantasy movie coming out just in time for Shoppermas: The Golden Compass. It’s based on a best selling (though not in the US) trilogy by Philip Pullman. It’s a good versus bad story … with God being the bad Guy. (My mind swims to an unbelievable island where God, lonely and needing work, remembers how Denzel Washington, the good guy’s good guy, surprised everyone by being so very bad in Training Day....

DEFEATING SIN – Overcoming Our Passions and Changing Forever

Last updated on: November 6, 2007 at 10:00 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Fr. Joseph: I wanted to both congratulate you and personally thank you for the book you wrote. There are countless truths in love … thank God, throughout the book. However, the message, over and over, to come to one’s senses, confess, receive forgiveness, and struggle to repent is overwhelming. But, even more so … there is but one choice: Obedience. True blessing lies not in passions but in learning to surrender even our God-Given desires over to Him. Finally, that... Read more

Fun to ‘Cipher the BYE-Bee-El-Eee!

Last updated on: November 5, 2007 at 9:21 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

An Episcopal church invites a Jewish Rabbi, who also happens to be a homosexual, to help them better understand the Bible. With a bit of characterization and Jewish witticism, Rabbi Steven Greenberg made his point clear: You shouldn’t use the Bible to pass judgment on others. Greenberg shared this belief during a sermon yesterday at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church on the campus of Ohio State University. Greenberg, who was raised in Bexley and is in Columbus for five days, is... Read more

Last updated on: November 4, 2007 at 5:40 pm By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

Daylight Saviour Time

Last updated on: November 3, 2007 at 8:29 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

An excerpt from this week’s AFR Podcast, already in progress … Our Lord, truly God and truly Man, chose the 12, the 70, and the many women disciples. He was visited in the Garden of Gethsemene and comforted by an Angel. Aided by Simon of Cyrene, He did not bear His Cross alone. No, our Lord does not appoint us to this work individually, but collectively. He gives us family, friends, co-workers — in the Church. Let us, fishers of... Read more

KNOWLEDGE: Material & Spiritual

Last updated on: November 2, 2007 at 8:39 am By Fr. Joseph Huneycutt

If one studies a great deal in order to acquire knowledge and to teach others, without living the things he teaches, he does no more than fill his head with hot air. At most, he will manage to ascend to the moon using machines. The goal of the Christian is to rise to God without machines.— Elder Paisios the Athonite Thanks to FWD from Fr Josiah Trenham.
