Patristic Nectar

November 7, 2025
In this powerful reflection, Father Josiah Trenham offers timeless advice for new converts, the call to fight the most important war: the war against yourself. Drawing from the wisdom of St. Paul, St. James, St. Peter, St. Nikolai Velimirovich, and St. Sophrony of Essex, Father Josiah reminds us that the true Christian struggle is not against others, but against our own passions, pride, and sin.
