I'm in the same case right now! What I've done is pick a part of my faith that is weak, have done research on it, read about it in the Bible, read books about the topic and pretty much all I can get my hands on.. For example, I'm praying to understa…
Haha well he's my roommate's cousin! Chris :P lol
And he is supposed to be coming out with his second Christian album in a few months, and if I hear anything from the inside family I'll tell you guys :)
Hey Bro!
I completely agree with Darewithboldness. Change your mind set and give it to God to carry. It isn't your burden. Your burden should be to be able to give it to Christ. I want to apologize for any posts that have been and probably will be …
haha! Abanoub and Chris you guys make me laugh.
You do realize you both posted the same link, and the same one that I posted too! hahaha
Sorry for the side note, enjoy the hazzat!
1 Corinthians 6:12
"Everything is permissible for me"—but not everything is beneficial.
It matters what you do with it, if it breaks you down or tempts you spiritually for any reason it is obviously not good for you no matter who has one. If it i…
To be honest, not to bash monasteries or monks, but getting it done in the states at a respectable shop is much better.
Shops are people that have a special skill and take on this profession, while in the monasteries its monks that are alright at …
ok christ-rose habibi,
i'm the coordinator from st. Mary's in baltimore, and i havent gotten any emails from daniel bolous or uncle sameh.
and we are one of the farthest churches competing, and coincidentally i was updated by randomly finding this f…
Have emails been sent to the Coordinators? They really can't just push dates the day before. Why can't things be organized. Just because we're Egyptian doesn't mean things shouldn't be done professionally. People have taken off of work, vans have be…
HAHA Abounb you're the funniest kid ever.
And yea just so you know, we're going to win this year :)
St. Mary's Baltimore, you wait and see!
Pray for us!

St. Mark's DC has made a few CDs of the hours of the agbeya. I've never heard it but their production are usually always great! I have found the First hour, Sixth hour and Eleventh hour. They might have done more but I didn't find them on the site.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the last prophet St.John the Baptist, for after him came the Messiah and that ended the need for any more prophets?

The only one I know of is this one:

It is a live recording from some of the deacons of HCOC.
No problem! And it's okay a lot of people confuse it!

Hey jydeacon!
I know that the Book of Revelation is very symbolic, but also has many literal things, and we studied most sections of it on my retreat with Abouna. But it surprised me how many things are definite and literal. This verse is one of th…
I have not listened to the link yet, and thank you for everyone for posting. But not to be rude but I think you aren't completely correct. There will be one Judgment, on the last day for those who are dead and living.

This has confused me for a while!
Maybe I'm looking at this incorrectly, but I need this cleared up. If those who are in Paradise go to Heaven after Second Coming, when are they judged to be sent to Paradise? Doesn't this completely demote the idea…
We should not love the devil because he is the embodiment of sin. H.H. always says, "Hate the sin, not the person". They are our enemies because of the sin. It is okay to hate their sin, but the person behind the sin should be loved as our own broth…
