Lecture 2: You Shall be Holy for I am Holy

Lecture 2: You Shall be Holy for I am Holy

Lecture #1 - Jesus and the One God 

Two lectures dedicated to Relationships &ndash; Human relationships in the light of Christ and patristic principles of parenting. Father Zacharias explains the means for a Christian to have all of his relationships flow from his central communion with the Lord Jesus Christ. It is this core union with Christ that scents and flavors all other human relationships for the Christian. Father Josiah speaks about family dynamics.&nbsp; He presents a vision for family life and parenting articulating patristic principles for child-rearing drawn extensively from the teaching of St. John Chrysostom. Extended question and answer sessions follow each lecture.

Lecture 5: An Itinerary of the Human Persona

🥣 Koliva recipe

3 cups of uncooked wheat berries (bought mine from Amazon)
2 cups of finely chopped walnuts (or nut of choice)
1 cup golden raisins
1 cup pomegranate seeds
1 cup graham crackers (crushed)
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
1-1/2 cups powdered sugar (for topping)
Jordan almonds for decoration

Prepare wheat berries according to package directions. Usually have to boil for 40-60 mins and then cool. Once the wheat berries have boiled, drain and rinse and lay on a baking sheet to dry out using paper towels below and above. Once cooled, they will be ready to assemble.

Mix all ingredients together, minus the powdered sugar. Put mixed items into a bowl and flatten the berries using your hand or parchment paper. Dust powdered sugar (generously) on top of the wheat berry mixture. Press down using parchment paper to flatten the powdered sugar and give it a more pristine finish. Then add the Jordan almonds in the shape of the cross on top of it and decorate as desired. Bring to church for the memorial and distribute to those in attendance. Pro tip: Don’t add the powdered sugar decorations until just before the memorial as it tends to absorb any moisture, and can often shift in transport giving it an unfinished look.

This creates about 7 cups of prepared wheat berries once boiled. The dish itself serves about 25.

Good Popes

Holy Apostle Onesimos of the 70

The 20th century was the most violent century in human history as 19th century German Marxism was instituted by violent revolution and thoroughly applied by dictators in many countries around the world leading to the deaths of more than 100 million people- many by execution, starvation and the Gulag, and the gathering into heaven of the largest number of Christian martyrs in Church History. These lectures survey the personal lives and ideology of five of the most brutal tyrants, and offer reflections upon the principles behind their tyranny &ndash; principles that continue to threaten the West today and are appearing in mainstream American politics.
