Christ is Born! Glorify Him!

Just yesterday, the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Sign in New York celebrated its patronal feast of the Kursk Root Icon of the Mother of God: the Hodegetria (lit. pathfinder) of the Russian Church Abroad. The spacious church was full, which is a sign that people supported our new First Hierarch, the rector of this cathedral.

Now I would like to offer you a journey back to the 1970s. This was a time of overlooked theological discussions. Is it not amazing that in America, as once in Byzantium, representatives of different theological schools discussed things like whether the soul would pass through Heavenly Toll Houses after leaving the body or the place of Blessed Augustine in the Orthodox Church? These schools were represented by: Holy Trinity Monastery, Jordanville, NY; St. Herman of Alaska Hermitage, Platina, CA; Holy Transfiguration Monastery, Brookline, MA; Deacon Lev Puhalo.
|
We want to present to our readers Jesse Dominick’s work dedicated to a theologian of the Russian Church Abroad, Priestmonk Seraphim (Rose, d. 1982), who was an important part of these discussions. Jesse is based in Russia, and many of us are grateful for the objective journalism he produces as an editor of the OrthoChristian.com website.

Thank you for your continuing interest,
