Finishing the Race - Fr. Gregory - January 05, 2020

New Year's resolutions are common for most as they reflect on their previous year and look ahead to the coming one. Father Gregory shares with us an insightful and practical message about how each of us as Orthodox Christians can use the sprinkling of the Baptismal waters during the Feast of Theophany to renew our own Baptismal commitment. He expounds on the Epistle reading, which is taken from II Timothy 4:5-8, where Saint Paul uses the imagery of athletics to describe his own spiritual hardships. Saint Paul encourages us that once we have been Baptized we should never give up, fight the good fight, play by the rules and keep The Faith till the end.
