St. John of Sinai in his Ladder of Divine Ascent writes that the lives of the Saints arouse us to emulation of their courage, and lead us to the virtue of humility and compunction. Contemporary Saints are particularly important since they acquired their love for God and holiness in the midst of our current milieu, and demonstrate that spiritual acquisition is possible even in our own troubled times.

Lecture 5: St. Boris of Bulgaria

Patristic Nectar Publications is blessed to present a new seven lecture series by Father Josiah Trenham entitled The Seven Last Words of Jesus from the Cross. At the very culmination of our Savior’s earthly ministry, having reached the pinnacle of His life-giving kenosis, the Lord Jesus Christ uttered seven final sayings. Each one of these “last words” abounds in deep spiritual meaning that have nourished the Christian people for the last 2000 years. These lectures are offered as a feast for the soul.&nbsp;Lecture #1 “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do”Lecture #2“Today thou shalt be with Me in Paradise”Lecture #3 “Woman, behold thy Son, behold thy mother”Lecture #4 “My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?”Lecture #5 “I Thirst”Lecture #6 “It is consummated”Lecture #7 “Into Thy Hands I commend My spirit”

Saint Dionysios

Patristic Nectar Publications is pleased to present a new six-lecture series by Father Josiah Trenham entitled Let Everything That Hath Breath Praise the Lord: The Psalms in the Divine Services. The Psalter is the supreme hymn book of the Church of Christ, and individual psalms – thematically selected to accentuate the core purpose of each worship service – are appointed to be read and/or chanted in each service. Father Josiah explains the significance of the particular Psalms that are found in the Divine Liturgy, Orthros, Vespers, Compline, as well as the exceedingly important and popular Shepherd Psalm 22, Repentance Psalm 50 – used in many liturgical services, and the Word of God Psalm 118. Father also begins each lecture with a brief discussion of particular commentary on the Psalms from different Holy Fathers.Lecture 1 - Psalm 50: The Psalm of Repentance.Lecture 2 - Psalm 1: The Godly ManLecture 3 - Psalm 103: The Psalm of CreationLecture 4 - Psalm 118: The Psalm of the Word of GodLecture 5 - Psalm 22 The Good ShepherdLecture 6 The Orthros Psalms

Lecture # 1  The Rise of a Humble Shepherd

If you desire to understand more deeply the inspired guidance of the Church concerning personal prayer, and want to strengthen your own prayer discipline by learning to more faithfully keep a prayer rule, or kanona, these lectures that explore the discipline of classical Orthodox Christian personal prayer will delight you. These edifying presentations examine the content and order of the prayer rule, giving special emphasis to the prayers of repentance, the rule of prostrations, the giving of thanks, the use of the Jesus Prayer, and spiritual reading.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Our Newest Lecture Series:
Demonology: Understanding & Winning the Spiritual Battle

Click Here: https://patristicnectar.org/bookstore_220620_11222221112

The study of the Church’s demonology is a part of basic catechism and Christian instruction. The Scriptures are replete with teaching on the dark powers. Additionally, it is impossible to appreciate the magnitude of the saving deeds of our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, without understanding how He, and He alone, has conquered Satan and destroyed his works. Lastly, Christians are called to fight and win in the spiritual war, and for this reason, it is essential that believers understand their enemies and their tactics. Toward this end, Father Josiah presents in these lectures in-depth studies of the Scriptures, Divine Services, and pedagogy of great saints and teachers on the subject of Satan and spiritual battle. 

Lecture titles include: 

Lecture #1 Jesus and Satan 

Lecture #2 Demonology in the Baptismal Rite and the Divine Liturgy 

Lecture #3 Gaining Mastery of Satan: The Life of St. Anthony the Great 

Lecture #4 How to Win the Spiritual Battle according to St. John of the Ladder 

Lecture #5 Engaging the Unseen Warfare: Fr. Lorenzo Scupoli and St. Nicodemos of the Holy Mountain 

Lecture #6 C. S. Lewis’ Screwtape Letters and Demonic Warfare in the 21st Century Falling West

Holy Hieromartyr Clement, Pope of Rome

In this series Father Josiah explains the great significance of corporate evening prayer in the Jewish and Christian traditions - Vespers.&nbsp; He surveys the structure and meaning of the text of the Vespers service, sets forth an understanding of the sublime Lenten service known to Orthodox Christians as the Presanctified Liturgy, and explains how the entire drama of redemption in Jesus Christ is unveiled in the flow of every Vespers service. Since we believe what we pray, and pray what we believe the acquisition of an understanding of the Vespers service itself is greatly nourishing to a strong confession of traditional Christian faith.

Vespers: Our Evening Offering to God

A review of how the Law of God &ndash; The Ten Commandments &ndash; directs all people to Christ, manifests His beauty and holiness, and reveals God's will for His people in every place and time. &nbsp;Twenty fundamental theological principles concerning God's Law are expounded, each of the Ten Commandments is explained in its original meaning and contemporary application, and special emphasis is given to the unique challenges faced by 21st century believers, who dwell in a post-Christian and secularized context.
