Lecture 2 - Job's Bitter Complaint

Lecture 3 - The Inadequate Explanations of Job's Friends

Lecture #1 The Hidden Treasure: Personal Awakening to God (Father Maximos Constas)

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

Holy counsel on why a Christian should trust God in every detail of his or her life, and how to do it even in the midst of terrible suffering. This is the first time this treatise is available in the English language.

On Providence

In this short reflection, Father Irenei speaks about the sacred space of prayer — how Orthodox Christians sanctify not only time but also place.

Why Obedience is Virtuous

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

In the Book of Job, the Christian believer sees an example of unconditional faith and patience in suffering; learns the limits of proverbial wisdom; and discovers the necessity of embracing a spirit of submissive silence in the presence of and before the face of Almighty God. Father Josiah surveys all 42 chapters of this beloved staple of the Old Testament Wisdom literature. Orthodox Christians read the Book of Job each year during Holy Week as they prepare to experience the Saving Passion of Jesus Christ the Lord. The Much-Suffering Prophet Job is a supreme example of the "innocent sufferer" whose intercessions healed men and whose patient endurance of inexplicable suffering was resolved by the unfolding of God's marvelous providence.

Lecture #4 - Who Do People Say That I Am? 

&nbsp; &nbsp;
Patristic Nectar is pleased to present a new six lecture series by Father Josiah entitled The Supremacy of Christ: An Exposition of St. Paul&rsquo;s Epistle to the Hebrews. The Epistle to the Hebrews was written to 1st century Jewish Christians suffering persecution for their Christian faith. Pressured and tempted to abandon Christ and return to their previous religion St. Paul sets forth the supreme glory of Jesus Christ above the prophets, the angels, Moses, Joshua, Aaron and the entire Old Covenant religious system. St. Paul exhorted these believers, and through them multiple successive generations of Christian believers to not neglect so great a salvation but hold fast to Jesus Christ: the same yesterday, today and forever.
Lecture #1 Jesus is better than the Prophets and the Angels
Lecture #2&nbsp; Jesus is better than Moses and Joshua
Lecture #3 Jesus is better than Aaron and Melchizedek
Lecture #4 Jesus&rsquo; New Covenant is better than the Old Covenant
Lecture #5 Jesus is the New and Living Way
Lecture #6 Jesus&rsquo; New and Heavenly City

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.

Why Do I Need to Pay the Church?

The Holy Sacrament of Confession is examined both theologically and with practical application to our lives.&nbsp; We learn how the confessed life is filled with the love of God and the joy of change for the better. Confession regenerates the human soul, and is the milieu in which "the rubber meets the road" in Christian transformation. The embrace of regular and heart-felt confession can open the door to God's Kingdom for us all.&nbsp; Topics covered in this series include: The meaning and institution of confession; preparation for confession and the Importance of self-examination; confession as spiritual medicine and the curative power of penance; the Father confessor; and answers to objections.
