Righteous Mother Theodora of Alexandria

Lecture 2: Justification by Works

This short but pungent Epistle - deeply rooted in the Wisdom and Prophetic Literature of the Old Testament - presents a virulent call to righteousness in the Church, or what St. James calls the perfect law, the law of liberty. The Epistle of St. James is perhaps the earliest book of the New Testament, having been penned by St. James, the Brother of God. St. James insists that pure and undefiled religion is a working faith expressing itself in sincere trust in God through all trials and zealous deeds of justice and mercy as believers anticipate the coming of the Lord, Whose 2nd Advent is right at the door.

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

Lazarakia for Lazarus Saturday

Jesus raised his friend Lazarus from the dead, and we commemorate this miracle and saint tomorrow on Lazarus Saturday. 

Your family can have a tangible way to participate in this feast by making this traditional bread.

🖥️ Lazarus Saturday Printable from Ascetic Life of Motherhood: https://www.asceticlifeofmotherhood.com/store/lazarusbuns

🍞 Ingredients 
6-1/3 cup (800g) of all-purpose flour
1-1/2 cups of lukewarm water
1 packet of yeast
3/4 cup of sugar
1 tsp of cinnamon
1/4 cup of olive oil
1/4 teaspoon of ground cloves (optional)
1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts (optional)
1/4 cup raisins (optional)
whole cloves or chocolate chips to decorate the eyes 
✍🏽 Instructions
Mix the dry ingredients (including yeast) together and knead for 1 minute, then add oil and lukewarm water. 
Knead well until the batter becomes a nice soft dough. You can now add in nuts or raisins if using. Cover and let the dough rest for about 45 minutes in a warm place.
Preheat the oven to 400°F . 
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. 
To shape each of the balls into small men, roll them out into an oblong shape, create a small ball to place as the head and press on top, and form two skinny strips and place them across the body in the shape of an “x” to represent arms. 
Insert 2 whole cloves or chocolate chips on the head to create the eyes. Should make 15-20 Lazarakia, depending on the size.
Place the Lazarakia on the baking sheets. Bake for 20 minutes or until the bread rolls turn golden brown. Cool before serving.
