We can know when Christ is present in our lives because He brings us a deep sense of inner peace.

Fr. Gregory says it cannot be stressed too highly how important the saints are for us in the Church.

Fr. Gregory welcomes visiting priest Fr. Raphael Barberg of St James the Apostle Antiochian Church, Westminster, Maryland to speak on Pentecost Sunday.

Fr. Gregory and Fr. Emmanuel team up today to discuss the significance of the Ascension.

Fr. Emmanuel Kahn gives the sermon on the Feast of Ascension.

On the Sunday of the Blind Man, Fr. Gregory points out that Jesus is referring not to the blind man who now sees but rather addresses the hostile questioning of the Pharisees who see physically but not spiritually.

Fr. Emmanuel gives the sermon and reminds his listeners that the way that we as Antiochian Orthodox Christians live and study and reach out to bring Christ to others can become the standard for Orthodox Christianity. There is no need for power politics or wealth or prestige within any part of the Orthodox Church.

There are people who want to be healed, sometimes desperately, but there are others who, while they claim that they want to be healed, deep down do not.

Fr. Emmanuel talks to the adults and Fr. Gregory to the children about how we can each give more of ourselves—of our abilities, our insights, our time, our energy, our prayer life—to Christ and to this parish church.

Fr. Gregory says we should take care every day to do a spiritual health check; to make sure that we are consciously living in the new life that Christ gives us out of his generosity and love.
