Spiritual Discussions (archive)
An investigation into central fundamental issues such as the meaning of life, our calling, the search for truth, the choice of the spiritual way. Additionally, we investigate other themes, such as dogmatic purity and the recognition of one’s own tradition. All these and more are discussed by the participants of Spiritual Discussions.
What are the Church’s responses to these challenging questions? What is the relationship between the spiritual and material aspects of life? Is it possible to reach perfection in this life? How does one carry out the commandments of Christianity? What should be our attitude towards various sects? How should we protect our children and ourselves from “spiritual deformations”? Thorough responses and discussions to these questions and other important issues will be heard in Spiritual Discussions.
Law of God and Law of Sin
In humans, there is struggle between the soul and the body. The indwelling of God in human. ”The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace” (Rom. 8:6). The law of the flesh leads humans to sin.

Divinity of Christ
What is the essence of the Holy Trinity? The interconnectedness of God, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Son was not transformed by becoming human; His divine nature did not stop. Christ went through all human passions and overcame them in order to free people from the sins embedded in them.
