How to Save Thousands of People from Hell

Lecture #4 "Keep Thy Mind in Hell and Despair Not"

Holy Great Martyr Artemios

The Beatitudes, or the blessings, pronounced by our Lord Jesus Christ upon His faithful followers constitute the opening salvo in our Savior&rsquo;s most famous teaching, The Sermon on the Mount. In this series each beatitude is unveiled revealing the universal character of an authentic Christian. Those who inculcate these sacred dispositions manifest the face of Jesus Christ to the world. By incarnating the qualities of Jesus Christ our Savior, that is, poverty of spirit, mourning, gentleness, hunger and thirst for righteousness, mercy, purity of heart, peacemaking, and the joyful acceptance of persecution - believers become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.&nbsp;

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.

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.

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;
