by Edith M. Humphrey The editors of Orthodox Life offer to their readers an edifying reflection on the Church’s response to pastoral and theological questions regarding sexual morality and Orthodox anthropology.

Boyfriends Do Not Get Husband Privileges. Period.
by Megan Aaron He’s your best friend, a partner in crime, cuddle buddy, motivator, and encourager. He’s your boyfriend. That’s it. Don’t give him things that his title in your life doesn’t entail.

When Church Is Optional, You Are Setting Up Your Kids To Fail
And again we see the folly of ‘once saved, always saved’ theology coming home to roost… in cribs and cradles, and the homes of irresponsible Christian parents. Kids, try Orthodoxy.

Homosexuals Persecuting Christians in America – Do You Feel The Walls Closing In?
Note: In 2015, the homosexual movement achieved a major milestone in the United States of America. The Supreme Court ruled that homosexual “marriages” must be performed in all 50 states.
