Discovering Orthodoxy - Evidences for God

In this unit Father Peter Farrington considers whether science requires an atheistic point of view, or whether it is possible and reasonable to engage in scientific studies while also believing that there is an intelligent and purposeful creator. The unit also considers the variety of scientific evidence which allows scientists to consider that the existence of God makes most sense.

Discovering Orthodox - Beginning with .. Church History

Discovering Orthodox - Beginning with .. Church History

In this unit H.E. Metropolitan Seraphim of the Coptic Orthodox Patriarchate introduces the study of Church History as a necessary aspect of our catechesis.

It is as we look back to the life of the Church that we learn how to live in the present and with hope for the future.

Abba Seraphim: Alter Orbis: British Christianity & the Roman Imperium

http://britishorthodox.org/3467/britain-and-the-early-church/

Abba Seraphim was among a number of distinguished speakers at a day conference entitled, "Britain and the Early Church. Exploring the origins of British Christianity", presented under the auspices of the Fellowship of Saint Alban & St. Sergius. The lectures were held at St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church in Southampton in 14 July. A number of Orthodox jurisdictions were represented: Father Chrysostom MacDonnell (Antiochian Orthodox Deanery) spoke on "After the Romans Left", tracing the cultural and religious growth of the Insular Church; Father John Nankivell (Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Thyateira) led a discussion exposing the 'myth' of Celtic Christianity whilst Father Andrew Phillips (Russian Orthodox Church outside of Russia) gave an extensive historical overview in "The Saints of the Isles and the Isles of the Saints." Academic contributions were made by Professor Paul Cavill of the University of Nottingham, who spoke on the "Veneration of the Cross in England" from its Constantinian origins; whilst Professor Michelle Brown of the University of London highlighted many exciting discoveries about cross-cultural links from ancient manuscripts. Abba Seraphim concluded with a talk, "Alter Orbis: British Christianity & the Roman Imperium." In his welcome to those attending, Father Stephen Platt, General Secretary of the Fellowship, commended Angelos Stanway, who had planned and organised the day single-handedly. Members of the British Orthodox Parish at Portsmouth and Southampton Mission showed their support by attending.

Jesus’ Teaching on Prayer

1 One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”

2 He said to them, “When you pray, say:

  “‘Father,

  hallowed be your name,

  your kingdom come.

3 Give us each day our daily bread.

4 Forgive us our sins,

  for we also forgive everyone who sins against us.

  And lead us not into temptation.’”

Luke 11: 1 - 4 NIV

-----

The Model Prayer NKJV

1 Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.”

2 So He said to them, “When you pray, say:

  Our Father in heaven,

  Hallowed be Your name.

  Your kingdom come.

  Your will be done

  On earth as it is in heaven.

3 Give us day by day our daily bread.

4 And forgive us our sins,

  For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.

  And do not lead us into temptation,

  But deliver us from the evil one.”
