Mercy is Inconvenient

November 29, 2018 ~ Fr Gregory ~ Leave a comment

Here’s the thing about being merciful; it 'soften inconvenient.

Forgiveness is Our Witness

November 19, 2018 ~ Fr Gregory ~ Leave a comment

Like the world around us, the life of the Church has always been marred by conflict. But where those in the world respond to strife with hatred and even violence, Christians forgive one another.

Lies We Tell Ourselves: #5 “God Wants Us to Be Happy!”

November 16, 2018 ~ Fr Gregory ~ Leave a comment

...too many Orthodox Christians have bought into the idea God’s love for them means God wants them to be happy and successful on their terms rather than His. We usually don't say this explicitly.

Lies We Tell Ourselves: #4 “It’s About Culture!”

November 15, 2018 ~ Fr Gregory ~ Leave a comment

While culture is important, even under the best of conditions it is always only nominally Christian. The reason for this is that culture--all cultures--is always a mix of different traditions.

Lies We Tell Ourselves: #3 “Just tell the Truth!”

November 15, 2018November 14, 2018 ~ Fr Gregory ~ Leave a comment

While religious education and apologetics are both important, we need to be careful that we don’t confuse saying things which are true with “speaking the truth in love.”

By the age of 25, about 60% of those baptized as infants will no longer consider themselves members of the Orthodox Church. A parish on a university campus is an important witness not only to the surrounding community but also to high school age and younger parishioner. Establishing a parish on the campus of the University of Wisconsin-Madison helps remind young people that graduating high school doesn't mean "graduating" from the Church. Please consider joining those who have committed their time, treasure and talent in establishing an Orthodox community on the Isthmus. Help us reach your children and grandchildren with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
