Christ is Risen! Shouldn’t Troubles Be Over?

May 5, 2020May 5, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
I’ve had more than one person say to me over the past couple weeks: “With Pascha here, I feel like COVID-19 should be over.” Shouldn’t this thing be over now? Christ is risen, you know.

This Holy Week is Not Okay

April 14, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
This is a moment for grieving, for deep repentance. It is not okay. Do not try to make it okay. That does not mean that we have to go around depressed, angry, etc. But it does mean that this is a moment for grief.

Prepare Now to Return to Church

March 22, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
What I do affects who I am and what I believe, especially when it is something I do over and over. It is my habits, my repeated actions, that influence how I see the world and who I am.

The Holy One and His Holy Ones

March 15, 2020March 13, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
At the end of time, when the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse ride forth, bringing famine, pestilence, war and death upon mankind, God will send forth His holy ones to match them and to overcome them.

Icons and Idols: Was God Invisible Before the Incarnation?

March 10, 2020March 10, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
The argument against iconography breaks down because those who reject icons do not understand what idolatrous images were actually used for. They were not merely religious art. They are a kind of religious technology designed to trap and control a god.

The Revelation of Forgiveness

March 5, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
When the gospel began to be preached, forgiveness from God was a revelation, something new that was outside of anyone’s expectation of how a god should operate.

The Sin That Corrupts From Within

February 16, 2020February 16, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
Sexual immorality is a kind of evil that introduces corruption into a person and his community in a way that is deep and damaging like almost nothing else is.

The Idolatry of the Pharisee

February 11, 2020 · Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
If we read the parable of the Publican and Pharisee merely as a morality tale about being humble rather than prideful, we miss how it is placed in the larger narrative of the Scripture and all the revelation of God.

“. . . the spirit of wickedness in high places is now so powerful and many-headed in its incarnations that there seems nothing more to do than personally to refuse to worship any of the hydras‘ heads.” —J. R. R. Tolkien
