I can only pray that you also gained insights about your own spiritual journey. I have also included a link to a pdf which contains all of the posts in this series.

  3. Great work. I've learned a lot from your commentary. There is so much I didn't know and I'm a life-long Orthodox Christian. I wish they would teach this stuff in Sunday School.

  4. Thank you Matt. I agree there should be more emphasis put on the long Spiritual Tradition of our faith.
    Next I am going to focus on a slightly different view which places more emphasis on love, the teaching of Elder Porphyrios. Hopefully you will be able to make a synthesis of the two.
