Today’s Guest blog comes from Fr. Stephen Freeman:
Among the many losses within modern Christianity has been the place of transformation. Nineteenth century revival movements and theology emphasized a single experience that was associated with salvation. Those who concerned themselves with what came later, described growth in the Christian life as “sanctification,” and tended to imply that it was optional. Contemporary Christians have settled for a spiritual life in a plain brown wrapper ever since.
Fr. Barnabas is the parish priest at Sts. Raphael, Nicholas, and Irene Greek Orthodox Church in Cumming, Georgia. He is also host of Faith Encouraged Live on Ancient Faith Radio and author of the Faith Encouraged podcast.
I saw and shared this essay from Fr. Stephen last week. Along with “Life Encouraged”, I recommend his blog at http://www.glory2godforallthings.com. This is just a single example of the fruit of the nous of this fine man of God.
