On this Forgiveness Sunday, we are confronted with the challenge of understanding the power of an honest confession, and I need help to forgive and be forgiven. We need the hard work of an honest exploration into WHY I choose what I choose and WHY I prioritized what I prioritize in my daily life. Why do you act the way you do? Are you at least curious about your motives? Great Lent offers you a healthy way to discover the truth about yourself.

The essential motivation for the consistent practice of the Orthodox Way of Life is to build into your life the ability to stay faithful no matter what is happening around you. The temporary fads that excite or enrage us are all so frivolous and war against our peace. But Christ, in His Encounter in the Temple, reveals Himself as the Indestructible Man who provides a solid foundation for my life!
