Why is Life So Brutal?

This Philokalia text was written as an antidote to discouragement and despair that had afflicted a community of monks. This beautiful text so full of honest evaluation of the trials of concerted Christian living provides numerous words of consolation and encouragement to the struggler such as, "When you are being tested by trials and temptations, you cannot avoid feeling dejected. But those who till the earth of hardship and tribulation in their hearts are afterwards filled with great joy, tears of consolation and holy thoughts"...and again, "To anyone among you who is oppressed by a sense of his worthlessness and inability to attain holiness, this is our message: if he attains dispassion he can see Jesus, not only in the future, but coming to him here and now, with power and great glory."

Loving God Without Fear is a free three part lecture series by Bishop Irenei (Steenberg) of Richmond and Western Europe of the Russian Orthodox Church in America.&nbsp;Bishop Irenei is author of &ldquo;The Beginnings of a Life of Prayer&rdquo; and a onetime fellow of Oxford University and Chair of Theology and Religious Studies at Leeds.

Loving God Without Fear

This series is dedicated to one of the signature prayers of the sacred season of Great and Holy Lent, and is designed to unveil the comprehensive meaning and significance of this magnificent prayer for the spiritual life of the Christian. With extended teaching on the significance of prostrations, repentance and transformation, the nature of our fundamental vices or passions, and the acquisition of virtue, Father Maximos - with his usual economy of words and vast pedagogical repertoire - makes the listener feel as though he had never heard the prayer in his life.

Reflection | We Must Face The World

Lecture #2 St. Gabriel of Georgia, Fool for Christ

A close examination of the therapeutic nature of the Church as a spiritual hospital providing a means for acquiring divine power and grace for the healing of diseases of soul and body.&nbsp;Topics include: &nbsp;Jesus Christ as Healer; sin as a disease; the Church as a spiritual hospital; the Spiritual Father as a physician of the soul; and the diagnosis and recommended treatment plan for six common spiritual pathologies - self-love, anger, gluttony, despondency, avarice, and pride. In this series Holy Orthodoxy is revealed for what it is at its heart: a means for acquiring divine power and grace for the healing of our diseases of soul and body, and not a barren ideology.

Lecture #1 - Jesus and the One God 

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”

Digital Audio - A broad introduction to Orthodox Christianity designed to expose the catechumen to the contours of Orthodox faith and life, aid priests in preparing catechumens to be received into the Church as well as edify Orthodox individuals seeking a better understanding of their faith.&nbsp;
For those seeking to become Orthodox, Catechism is a process of full-orbed Christian formation in which the Orthodox Christian life is inculcated in the learner through participation in divine services, prayer, study, community assimilation, and practice. At the heart of the catechetical process are the catechetical lectures delivered to the catechumens by the priest or the catechist.&nbsp; It is toward this goal of providing a usable introduction to Holy Orthodoxy that the sixteen lectures entitled An Orthodox Catechism have been developed by Father Josiah. This series has been utilized by Father Josiah in parish practice over the course of almost two decades to prepare more than 400 catechumens for reception into the Orthodox Church.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Not having an official Orthodox Catechism in the English language, many parishes and pastors scramble to put together a basic catechism that will adequately expose the inquirer and catechumen to the contours of Orthodox faith and life.&nbsp; It is hoped that this series will aid priests and parishes in preparing catechumens to be received into the Church, as well as edify Orthodox individuals seeking a better understanding of their faith.
These sixteen lectures are presented to catechumens in two parts. Part One: God, Man, Church is traditionally delivered over the eight weeks leading to the Feast of the Nativity of Christ. Part Two: The Holy Mysteries is delivered over the eight weeks leading up to Pasha, when catechumens are being prepared for reception into the Church on Great and Holy Saturday.

An Orthodox Catechism

Patristic Nectar is pleased to announce a new 9-lecture series by Father Josiah entitled God&rsquo;s Gift to the West: The Life and Teaching of St. Nikolai Velimirovich. St. Nikolai- the New Serbian Chrysostom &ndash; has won the hearts of the entire Orthodox Christian world. This godly bishop was not only a great shepherd of his much-suffering Serbian people, but a Spirit-illumined theologian who spoke the word of truth into the very heart of the darkness of the 20th century. Earning doctorates in his youth in both Berne, Switzerland and Oxford, England, he went on to live through World War I and World War II, traveling throughout Europe and America lifting up his voice and prayer, and setting forth the truth in Christ for the falling West in more than 30 books and innumerable sermons and lectures in innumerable venues in churches, universities, and parliaments before falling asleep in the Lord at St. Tikhon Seminary here in America in 1956. 
Lecture titles are as follows: Lecture #1 An Overview of the Life of St. Nikolai
Lecture #2 The Prologue from Ochrid and 100 Meditations on Love
Lecture #3 The Missionary Letters
Lecture #4 War
Lecture #5 The Life of St. Sava and his Nationalism
Lecture #6 Ecumenism: Good and Bad
Lecture #7 The Orthodox Catechism
Lecture #8 Prayers by the Lake
Lecture #9 The Miracle of the Incarnation of Jesus Christ

God's Gift To The West: The Life and Teachings of St. Nikolai Velimirovich

The 150 Psalms of the Psalter are presented here, divided into twenty sections of roughly equal length, known as Kathisma that can be read or chanted in one sitting or session.

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,&nbsp;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;

The Beatitudes

Bishop Irenei encourages us all to live as faithful sheep in the flock of Christ. The beautiful characteristics of our Good Shepherd, Jesus Christ are unfolded by Bishop Irenei (Steenberg) as he guides the pastors of the Church in imitating the Chief Shepherd. These lectures are illumining not just for clergy, but for the laity as well.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Shepherd and the Sheep

The sacred psalter has long been the central prayer book of the Church, and the heart of Her liturgical services. Here we have a collection of commonly sung Psalms performed by chanters of St. Andrew Orthodox Church, Riverside, California. Each psalm is given a brief theological introduction by Fr. Josiah Trenham. We hope that this recording will provide pleasure to your ears, and enable you to more actively participate in the holy services, while manifesting to you the depth and wisdom of these sacred prayers.

Sacred Psalmody

Byzantine Chant Training for Orthros by Bishop Basil. This audio, virtually twice as long as the Vespers chant training audio, covers most of the standard hymnody of Orthros.&nbsp;How this audio came to be…&nbsp;Many years ago a young man upon being ordained into the Holy Orthodox Priesthood found himself with the tremendous blessing and daunting task of leading the people of God pastorally as well as in the divine services. One of the great early challenges, among many, was learning how to proficiently chant according to the ancient traditions and tones of the Church. It was because of this that Bishop Basil lovingly created these audio recordings and provided this young priest with a model and training sessions of how to properly chant for the Church and Her Services. The following are those same exact audio files - recorded in a bathroom! These have been digitally enhanced and are now offered to you by Patristic Nectar Publications. Our hope is that others who find themselves in a similar circumstance or simply with the desire to learn have available to them an exceptional model and training resource. May these be richly edifying for those who seek to learn how to chant.Bishop Basil of the Diocese of Wichita and Mid-America (Antiochian Archdiocese) is one of the premier liturgists in the contemporary Orthodox world. He is a former instructor of Byzantine Chant at St. Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary where a Chair of Byzantine Liturgical Music was established in his name in 2010. He is also the author of The Liturgikon: The Book of Divine Services for the Priest and Deacon published originally in 1989, now in its 3rd edition, and considered by many to be the premier Ieratikon in the English language. He himself has composed and/or arranged numerous Byzantine music settings in his Contemporary Byzantine Music project.We provide a note:&nbsp;The training recordings were made using old technology years ago and recorded informally by Bishop Basil.&nbsp;Some selections end abruptly, and they are not of the quality one would achieve in a recording studio.&nbsp;But even so, these endearing efforts to train a young priest are treasures and the young priest's ability to chant and serve his parish over the years is a testimony to their value.

Introductory Notes

January 21: Holy Martyr Agnes of Rome

PNP is pleased to present a new six-lecture series by Father Josiah Trenham entitled Demonology: Understanding and Winning the Spiritual Battle. The study of the Church&rsquo;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.&nbsp;
Lecture titles include:&nbsp;
Lecture #1 Jesus and Satan&nbsp;
Lecture #2 Demonology in the Baptismal Rite and the Divine Liturgy&nbsp;
Lecture #3 Gaining Mastery of Satan: The Life of St. Anthony the Great&nbsp;
Lecture #4 How to Win the Spiritual Battle according to St. John of the Ladder&nbsp;
Lecture #5 Engaging the Unseen Warfare: Fr. Lorenzo Scupoli and St. Nicodemos of the Holy Mountain&nbsp;
Lecture #6 C. S. Lewis&rsquo; Screwtape Letters and Demonic Warfare in the 21st Century Falling West&nbsp;

The Philokalia is the Church's treasure of sacred texts from the 4th-15th century dedicated to inner asceticism and prayer.

These audio texts have been professionally recorded, and are offered free.

A review of the far reaching subjects associated with the remembrance of death, aging, burial and praying for the reposed that is both spiritually edifying and practical.&nbsp;The lectures are devoted to the remembrance of death, the significance of aging, the meaning of the funeral service and burial, the tradition of Christian cemeteries and memorial customs, and the ancient and universal practice of praying for the repose of the departed. Besides examining these much-neglected topics, Father Josiah provides two step-by-step guides: one guide elucidating the steps a family ought take from the time of a beloved one's repose until burial. Father also posits additional guidance elucidating the steps a family can take to express love for and to assist the soul of a departed loved one in the forty days immediately following his or her repose.

Lecture #2 - How Does Jesus Relate to God?

Patristic Nectar Publications is pleased to present a new three-lecture series by Father Josiah Trenham entitled&nbsp;War and Peace: An Orthodox Perspective on Violence.&nbsp;This series presents peace as the normative Christian ethos, the very expression of the Kingdom of God in the life of the individual, family, church, and nation. It also surveys the Church's teaching on war and the use of force, with particular emphasis on the witness of the soldier saints as a model of the Christian use of force. Lecture #1 War and Peace in the ScripturesLecture #2 Principles of Justifiable Warfare and the Use of ForceLecture #3 The Military Saints and an Ethical Evaluation of the War in Ukraine

War and Peace: The Orthodox Perspective on Violence

<a href="https://www.audible.com/pd/Marriage-and-Virginity-According-to-St-John-Chrysostom-Audiobook/B0BL1ZWWTK?action_code=ASSGB149080119000H&amp;share_location=pdp" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Click Here to Listen On Audible! </a>This book is a treasure trove of the distilled counsels of St. John Chrysostom distilled from his thorough knowledge of and love for the Holy Scriptures and his profound respect for and obedience to the mind of the Church concerning matters of great interest and importance to people of all ages and circumstances: virginity, chastity, celibacy, marriage, contraception, parenting, family life, sexual practices, divorce, remarriage, and widowhood.You will find that this great fourth-century preacher and pastor of the Church still has an urgent (and salvific!) message to proclaim to people of the 21st-century and beyond the soul-profiting message of the beauty of consecrated virginity and the blessedness of marriage. I trust that after receiving his inspired counsel you will marvel at the beauty of the Scripture-based teachings so as to be lifted to the clouds in appreciation of and admiration for the God Who fashioned and sanctified both states for His glory. May it be so! - from the foreword by His Grace Basil, Bishop of Wichita and Mid-America, Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North AmericaSaint John Chrysostom still speaks, today even louder than in the fourth century. Not all will wish to hear him, as not all wished to hear him then... But those who have humility will find in him an able instructor and will find a place of confidence in these confusing times. He radiates amidst the Holy Fathers of the Church as the great defender and sanctifier of the Christian home and city. Adherence to his teaching has produced innumerable saints in the Church, spiritually born both in the monastery and in the Christian home, and is capable of producing the same today - from the Afterword by Fr. Josiah Trenham©2013 St. Herman of Alaska Monastery (P)2022 Archpriest Josiah B. Trenham

The nature of spiritual direction and eldership in the Church is unfolded through an examination of the lives of influential elders who have served Christ and who are either still living or have reposed in the Lord within the last 50 years. The lives and teaching of these seven great elders from Romania, Greece, England and America are majestic love gifts from the reigning Christ to His Flock on earth, and their radiant witness serves as a clear guide for all who wish to enter into the Kingdom of God.&nbsp;

On the Feast of Theophany, Father Josiah explains the Orthodox teaching on therapeutic judgment - the healing judgment of grace at work in the present age, distinct from the final judgment of justice. Drawing from Scripture and the preaching of St. John the Baptist, this reflection calls believers to repentance, self-examination, and transformation in Christ.

00:00 The Revelation of Christ at Theophany
02:19 Christ Did Not Come to Judge, but to Save
05:42 Therapeutic Judgment and Self-Examination

Therapeutic Judgment

St. Jerome

Christ ascended — but He did not leave us. In this powerful Ascension reflection, we explore how Jesus continues to bless, watch over, and remain with His Church even after rising to heaven. Learn what it means to live under the blessing of Christ, why His gaze never leaves us, and how the priesthood carries that blessing to the world.

Patristic Nectar Kids

Patristic Nectar Publications is pleased to present a new 8 lecture series entitled:&nbsp;The Original Church: Lectures on the Acts of the Apostles&nbsp;by Father Josiah Trenham. The Acts was written by the Holy Apostle and Evangelist Luke, as the 2nd&nbsp;part of his great literary masterpiece setting forth the Life of Jesus Christ in his Gospel, and then in the Acts showing forth the new Christian life made possible by the Lord’s great and saving deeds and the descent of the Holy Spirit. Here in these sacred pages we discover what St. Paul calls “new creation in Christ.”Here we discover what is the birth-right of Christians – that is the continuous miracle of church life. Lecture titles are as follows:&nbsp;Lecture #1 The Meaning of the Acts&nbsp;Lecture #2 Pentecost&nbsp;Lecture #3 Spiritual Life&nbsp;Lecture #4 Fellowship&nbsp;Lecture #5 Martyrdom&nbsp;Lecture #6 Conversion&nbsp;Lecture #7 Defending the Faith: The Jerusalem Council&nbsp;Lecture #8 The Missionary Journeys of St. Paul&nbsp;

The Original Church: Lectures on the Acts of the Apostles

In this powerful Pentecost reflection, Father Josiah Trenham unpacks the miraculous and ongoing work of the Holy Spirit—not just in the Church, but in the whole world. Discover how the Spirit, poured out at Pentecost, continues to shape creation, bring unity to divided peoples, and fulfill God’s redemptive plan.

How Pentecost Heals the World

Join us for the Spring Conference at St. Andrew Orthodox Church, Riverside, CA, March 21-23, 2025. Focus on repentance with Bishop Irenaeus and Father Alexis Torrance. *Register at*  www.conference.patristicnectar.org.

In this video, Father Josiah explores the significance of speech and the impact of words in building relationships, particularly in marriage. Drawing from the teachings of St. John Chrysostom, we reflect on how husbands can use language to uplift their wives and strengthen their bond. The video also highlights God's use of terms of endearment throughout scripture and how we can incorporate these into our own lives.

Without humility, all is worthless

Patristic Nectar Publications is pleased to present a new 7 lecture series by Father Josiah Trenham entitled Heaven: Our True Home. One of the most shocking realities of the preaching and teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ to His early 1st century Judean audience was His fervent, expansive, and repetitive teaching on heaven. Heaven literally permeates the Sermon on the Mount and our Savior’s Parabolic instruction. The Holy Apostles received this single-eyed focus upon the next life from the Lord Christ and passed this teaching on to their disciples in the early Church. Sacred tradition has vivified and animated the discipleship of Christians in their race toward heaven ever since. In these lectures, Father Josiah opens the Scriptures and the writings of the Church Fathers on the subject of heaven in an effort to plant a deep impression of the future life of God’s children, and to stir up a great desire for obtaining it.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Lecture #1 Heaven in the Holy GospelsLecture #2 Heaven in the Acts of the Apostles and the EpistlesLecture #3 Heaven in the ApocalypseLecture #4 Heaven in the Church Fathers: A FlorilegiumLecture #5 Heaven: A Definitive End and a New BeginningLecture #6 What is Heaven Actually Like: Common QuestionsLecture #7 Heaven Mislaid: The Eclipse of Heaven in the Secular West and the Christian Response&nbsp;

Living with Regrets

Holy Martyr Anastasios the Persian

January 22:Holy Martyr Anastasios the Persian

Father Josiah gives a reflection on the rise of AI-generated erotica and the spiritual catastrophe of pornography in the digital age. Father also exposes how tech giants are fueling addiction, destroying relationships, and enslaving souls — and calls us to purity, discipline, and custody of the eyes.

Prayer against Internet Pornography 👇
Before turning on the computer, make three bows, kiss the holy
icons, and say:
*O Lord Jesus Christ, my God and Savior, through the prayers of
Thy Most Pure Mother and of my Patron Saint and Guardian
Angel, preserve me from all sinful pleasures in all my senses; help
me not to look at evil and impure images that will harm my soul
and separate me from Thee; help me to cut off the desire to
indulge in such unchaste activity; and help me rather to do work
that is productive and pleasing to Thee and to Thy Church, that I
may glorify Thee, together with Thine Unoriginate Father and the
Most Holy, Good and Life-creating Spirit, now and ever and unto
the ages of ages. Amen.*
