Blessed art Thou, O Christ our God, Who hast shown forth the fishermen as supremely wise by sending down upon them the Holy Spirit, and through them didst draw the world into Thy net. O Befriender of man, glory be to Thee

Join Fr. Peter Heers in this lecture first given in February of 2022, as he addresses a most important topic: St. Nicodemos the Hagiorite, the Rudder or Collection of Canons of the Holy Church, and the reception of the Heterodox into the Orthodox Church. In this podcast we sit at the feet of St. Nicodemos and the Holy Kollyvades Fathers to gain understanding of a subject so often misunderstood in our day.

Apolytikion of St. Nikodemos of the Holy Mountain - Third Tone
Thou hast been shown to be a godly clarion of holy oracles, teaching us righteousness. Thou wast adorned with wisdom's grace, O Father, Saint Nikodemos
For thou didst present to all thy pure life as a paradigm,
pouring forth enlightenment by the wealth of thy godly words.
Thy teachings of salvation illumined as light the whole world, O righteous Father.
