On the Sunday in which the Orthodox Church commemorates the 630 Fathers of the Fourth Ecumenical Council in Chalcedon, Fr. Matthew Howell explains the theological debate centered on the two natures of Christ. He claims that everything in the Church is built upon this Truth of how Jesus Christ is one divine person with both a fully human and fully divine nature. He then ties this feast to the Gospel (Matthew 5:14-19) by pointing out that the closer we draw to Christ, who is the Light of the World, the more we should be filled with His Light and Love and therefore the more brightly our good works should shine.
Epistle: Titus 3:8-15
Gospel: Matthew 5:14-19
