Metropolitan Simon (Novikov)
The appearance of a righteous man in the world is always a great mercy of God toward mankind, for the righteous are the foundation and support of the world.
Archpriest Pavel Gumerov
St. Theophan the Recluse calls vainglory the “domestic thief.” It creeps up undetected and steals the work that we’ve undertaken for the sake of God and man and the reward for it.
Hieromonk Kirill (Popov)
There is much—if not everything—we can learn from our Mother, the Theotokos. Her humility, meekness, gentleness, purity of soul and body are given to us as a lesson and example. We must not only admire Her but strive to be like Her.
