Fr. James Guirguis
St. Apostle Paul takes an earthly reality and he uses it to bring to light an even greater spiritual reality. He uses this language of freedom and slavery with a completely different purpose.
Archpriest Gregory Dyachenko
The Most Holy Virgin Theotokos is the special protectress of pious Christians.
St. John Chrysostom

Fr. Lawrence Farley

Nikolaos Sotiropoulos
