Read the lives of the saints. The Orthodox Christian faith is rich with records of these men and women who literally and figuratively gave their lives for Christ.
Lol that comment about Luther and Twitter. Although I think that Luther was the greatest theologian and teacher In the reformation. Way better than Calvin couldve thought about doing.
If you or anyone else you know wants to learn about the subject of ecclesiology and the false church system we have today, I recommend you watch two series taught by Chigwell Christian Fellowship titled “Biblical Church Life” and “Traditions” found on RUclips. Isn’t about time the church stops following man made rules and sticks to Scripture alone.
I lived a year in Turkey, one in Korea, three in Argentina as well as extended times in other countries. I know that Islam is different where it is the dominant culture versus here in the US where it is sanitized by Christianity.
Christianity is different in other countries too, where it isn't sanitised by democracy. The Central African Republican Genocide began in 2012 and is ongoing, it amounts to an ethnic cleansing of the muslim minority by Christians. The Bosnian genocide the same.
Read your Bible, trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, repent, look to Christ for all your strength and help...NOW... repeat...Find a good church and belong to it.. repeat.
Brilliant discussion and educative, since coming across Prof. Glenn always gaining wisdom to see God working in cultures.

The last chapter should be Tom Holland's Dominion, not Tom Howard😄
They are called hagiographies.
They just depress me because I know my life has been a failure.
@Yessica 1993 but it’s not over yet. Praying for you.
We are all failed. Oh but for the grace of God. Let us be weak, let Him be our strength. Be encouraged, your failure is His glory.
