In this episode. Fr. John explains how the tone of our thoughts can tell us a lot about their origins.

In an age of ever increasing anxiety and uncertainty, we can look to the lives of Sts. Peter and Paul as examples of how we can deepen our relationship with Christ--even in the most dire historical moments.

Father John gives us the history and meaning of the most read Psalm in the Orthodox liturgical cycle of prayer.

Do you suffer from heightened emotion, limited reason, hidden fears, and a general distortion of facts? You might have Dark Basement Syndrome. In this episode, Fr.

Father John discusses the "both/and" and "either/or" decisions that we often encounter in the spiritual life.
