God has deemed us worthy to receive Him as the Gift of eternal life.2020-09-2725 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowly#38: the Exaltation of the Life Giving CrossJust before we take communion, before we receive Christ God, the Gift, let us consider who we are as gifts too, and make sure we are willing to take up our cross, deny ourselves and follow Him, and become extraordinarily and fully human, beyond our wildest imagination.2020-09-2050 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Synaxis of Joachim and our Patroness Anna, and the Birth of the Mother of God13 Sept 20202020-09-2015 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowly #37: the Fraction, breaking the BodyAfter the Lord's prayer, the priest is required to do the unthinkable, break the Body of Christ. This homily explains how and why. 6th Sept 20202020-09-2019 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowly #36: The Prayer of the PhysicianImmediately after the Lord's prayer in the Liturgy is a beautiful prayer that reminds us that the Gift of the Lord is that of the Great Physician, for the healing of soul and body.2020-09-2015 minThe GiftThe GiftMoney Sunday: the Sunday after the Dormition of the TheotokosThe ox is not prevented from eating some of the wheat that it is grinding, and so the ministers of the church need to be paid too. Saint Anne's clergy are all volunteers and our income as a parish has fallen during Covid19 lockdown. Please consider making an online donation.2020-09-2026 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Dormition (Falling Asleep) of the Birth-Giver of GodIn the chaos of everyday life, the example of the Theotokos is important because it tells us that focusing on the 'one thing needful' is the key to the human transfiguration2020-08-1621 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowly #35: The prayers before the Lord's PrayerGoing back slightly, we consider the prayers from St John and St Basil that are said just before the Lord's Prayer, and how they affirm that God makes us worthy, how He looks on us and deems us worthy. He answers our prayers, He is a God of Love not wrath.2020-07-1217 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowly #34: The Lord's Prayer, Thy Kingdom come.When people refuse to bend a knee before anyone except the Queen or President, we remember in the Lord's Prayer that the Kingdom of God is present on earth, not just in heaven. If we don't bow before anyone, we may refuse to encounter Christ2020-07-0512 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowly #33: The Lords Prayer, whose Father? Our FatherIn this episode, we start looking at the Lord's prayer, the first clause, Our Father, not mine, but Our Father. We also think of the nature of God's Fatherhood.2020-06-2810 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowly #32:kenosis: self emptying as personhoodReturning to the Liturgy Slowly series, we start again with a wider thought about the idea of self emptying, kenosis, as a more profound gift-giving. Giving of ourselves requires us to empty ourselves of our ego and hangups to truly accept those mentioned in the Beatitudes2020-06-2115 minThe GiftThe GiftFeast of Holy PentecostAs the Holy Spirit descends on the church at Pentecost, the barriers of language of Babel are cast away, and all those who are 'blackened' by society are raised up to common dignity in Christ2020-06-0713 minThe GiftThe GiftAscension of Christ: awaiting the 'dynamis' of the Spirit means facing up to our human freedomAscension of Christ: awaiting the 'dynamis' of the Spirit means facing up to our human freedom2020-05-3111 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Sunday of the Man born Blind. 2020The Sunday of the Man born Blind. 20202020-05-2416 minThe GiftThe GiftRadonitsa Panikhida April 2020Radonitsa Panikhida April 20202020-04-2847 minThe GiftThe GiftSt Thomas Sunday 2020St Thomas Sunday 20202020-04-261h 40The GiftThe GiftVesperal Divine Liturgy of Holy Saturday 2020Vesperal Divine Liturgy of Holy Saturday 20202020-04-181h 42The GiftThe GiftThe Lamentations Service Holy Week 2020The Lamentations Service Holy Week 20202020-04-171h 49The GiftThe GiftImperial Hours Holy Week 2020Imperial Hours Holy Week 20202020-04-171h 32The GiftThe GiftService of the 12 Gospels of Christ's PassionService of the 12 Gospels of Christ's Passion2020-04-162h 07The GiftThe GiftUnction Service Holy Week 2020Unction Service Holy Week 20202020-04-151h 24The GiftThe GiftBridegroom Matins Holy Tuesday 2020Bridegroom Matins Holy Tuesday 20202020-04-151h 15The GiftThe GiftBridegroom Matins Holy MondayBridegroom Matins Holy Monday2020-04-151h 11The GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #31: O Lord, who at the Third Hour: the silent and still dynamic action of the Holy SpiritAfter mentioning the Holy Spirit only 25 times, the Liturgy now invokes the presence of the Holy Spirit at the epiclesis. St Gregory Palamas' theology of the energies of God help us to understand the dynamic action of the silent and still Godhead.2020-03-1518 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #30: This reason-endowed worship: making sure we adore God and venerate iconsWords change their meanings, so we have to be careful about what we do when we approach icons in our prayer life, giving the pinnacle of everything in our lives to God alone, and not mistakenly to icons.2020-03-0916 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #29: Thine of thine own: forgiveness is more than behaviour modificationIn this episode, on Forgiveness Sunday, we reach the elevation of the Gifts, offering Chris God to God the Father, His essence to His essence, not offering sweatmeats to placate an angry deity. When we ask forgiveness of each other, we are not saying sorry for individual behaviour. We have the opportunity to heal ancestral and cultural hatreds and oppression that we unknowingly repeat in our actions, attitudes and behaviours. Forgiveness Sunday isn't just about saying sorry to each other, but healing our whole society.2020-03-0117 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #28: This is my Body: the Last Judgement is about what we have done for Christ's bodyIn this episode on the Sunday of the Last Judgement before Lent starts, we consider the nature of the bread that Christ blesses, and that we refer to in the Lord's prayer. It is the same essential bread that makes up the Body of Christ that is at once the body of Jesus, us as church and His presence in the world.2020-02-2320 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #27: This whole dispensation: the centuries old loving response of the Father to the Prodigal childrenIn this episode, on the Feast of the Prodigal Son, we look at the Dispensation, explained in detail by St Basil's liturgy, which is the centuries long loving response of the loving Father to us, the prodigal children who have squandered our inheritance as His children2020-02-1617 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #26: Holy, holy, holy: making sense of the bodiless powersIn this episode, we focus on seraphim and cherubim, and other bodiless powers mentioned in the liturgy. It's hard to make sense of them without becoming superstitious. With the aid of Storm Ciara, Fr Timothy concentrates on the powers or characteristics of our relationship with God that they represent.2020-02-0920 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #25: The Sanctus: blessed is He who comes in the name of the LordOn the Feast of the Presentation of Christ in the Temple, also coinciding with the Sunday of Zachaeus, we find that we can only encounter Christ when we are willing to say 'Blessed is he who comes in His name', in other words, when we see Christ in all those, like Zachaeus, who are despised by polite society.2020-02-0216 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #24: Ineffable, inconceivable, invisible, incomprehensible: You, oh GodIn this episode, St John's liturgy provides us with his first full theological statement, not describing God's positive attributes, but apophatic theology is more familiar to Orthodoxy, describing that which God is not. We give thanks to God, however, that He emptied Himself of everything that He is not, to become Christ.2020-01-1915 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #23: Lifting up you: heart and soulLet us lift up our heart: the ancient part of the liturgy refers to the lifting up of our soul, our whole life to God, a radical freedom in Christ to be Transfigured.2020-01-1224 minThe GiftThe GiftBaptism: the anaphora of LifeWe have finally arrived at the anaphora, at the Baptism of Christ by John the Forerunner. Having seen the procession of Christ as the Gift in the Great Entrance, we become the Sacrifice of Praise, offering ourselves in Thanksgiving for Christ baptising His creation, turning back sin and restoring paradise. Let us, in awe and reverence, stand and attend to this moment.2020-01-0528 minThe GiftThe GiftInto the desert: the Sunday after NativityAs the Magi deal with Herod after their long journey, we consider St Paul's time in the desert after his encounter with God. We have encountered God incarnate, we mustn't now just brush that away, we should respond with our own time in contemplation.2019-12-2916 minThe GiftThe GiftThe genealogy of Christ: God has a planTaking a long view on the Gift of His incarnation in the flesh, God has a plan, but not what we might think, and not a plan we frustrate by our sinfulness. God has worked through the centuries, through the prophets who didn't receive the promise, to prepare for His Nativity.2019-12-2317 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #22: In one mind let us confess: the exchange of peaceIn this episode we look at the kiss of peace, and the secondary differences that we have to put aside to become of 'one mind in Christ' that we are able to confess the Trinity.2019-12-1519 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #21: The litany of completion: immaculate but not conceived as such.In this episode, on the Feast of the Conception of the Theotokos by our Patroness Anna, Father considers the placing of the litany of completion at the placing of the Gifts on the Holy Table, and the importance of us understanding that the Theotokos is not conceived immaculately, but lived spotlessly.2019-12-0820 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #20: The Great Entrance: noble JosephIn this final episode on the Great Entrance, Fr Timothy notes the shift from the great and glorious procession of Christ in glory, accompanied by the heavenly host, carried aloft by the deacons, to being lifted down from the cross and carried by the noble Joseph and laid on the Holy Table as into the Tomb2019-12-0110 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #19: The Great Entrance: stand aright, lay aside every earthly care, you are worthy.In this second episode in the Great Entrance, we consider the priest's normally silent prayer 'No one is worthy' in the context of the woman who is healed of her 18 year infirmity and the Entrance of Mary into the Temple. We are made worthy by God, not because we are worthy, but because He makes us worthy. We become temples of the Living God, like Mary, entering the temple, became The Temple of the Living God become Flesh.2019-11-2414 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy slowly #18: The Great Entrance: the heavenly processionIn this episode, we see the simple task of carrying the bread and wine as a heavenly procession of Chris the King, being borne aloft by cherubim and seraphim. Our simple gifts become the Gift. Let us be careful that we don't tear down the barns that Christ has built for us in His blessings to be replaced by the cupboards of our own making2019-11-1715 minThe GiftThe GiftThe liturgy slowly #17 : The purpose of liturgy: compassionIn this episode we pause before moving on to the Cherubic hymn to remind ourselves of the purpose of liturgy and ritual, to tell us the story, to re-enact the history of the people of God over the centuries, across cultures. We also remind ourselves that Christianity, faith itself, is not a spiritual act but a public physical act of compassion.2019-11-1216 minThe GiftThe GiftThe liturgy slowly #16: The end of the Liturgy of the CatechumensIn this final episode of the Liturgy of the Catechumens, before we move on to the Liturgy of the Faithful, Fr Timothy contemplates God freeing us from our chains, from our sinfulness, that we may be made worthy of the heavenly kingdom. He also notes again the importance of the antimens over which these prayers are made, the sign of the shepherds who guard our flocks. In times of turmoil, these shepherds have to gather us and lead us to new pastures2019-10-2919 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowy #15: The conscientious sower: the first of the wisdom prayersIn this episode, which didn't end as planned, Father Timothy considers the first of the 'wisdom' prayers, which is actually a recollection of the 'blood sacrifice prayers of the old testament, but now placed in the context of the bloodless sacrifice of Christ. He connects it to the careful placing of the seed of the Spirit in every human, placing the burden on us all of tilling the soil of faith.2019-10-1417 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowly #14: The crossroads of Nain: the dismissal of the catechumens.In this episode, Fr Timothy considers the crossroad in the divine liturgy where the catechumens are dismissed, where those who are called to life are called out of the crowd.2019-10-1021 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy in Slow Motion #13: The prokemenon: lining out, or building the body of Christ through songs and psalmsThe Liturgy in Slow Motion #13:  The prokemenon: lining out, or building the body of Christ through songs and psalms2019-10-0918 minThe GiftThe GiftSpecial episode: the Reitlinger frescosIn this special episode, Fr Timothy talks to Professor Roy Robson, a church historian from Penn State University in America, who came to see the extraordinary Reitlinger frescos in our parish church. We were both quite excited about them!2019-07-1724 minThe GiftThe GiftLiturgy in Slow Motion #3: In Peace, let us pray to the Lord.After the celebrant has declared that the Kingdom of God is to be blessed, the congregation, led by the deacon, sing the first great Litany.  Fr Timothy considers the point of praying for peace, and describes what is being prayed for during the first Litany2019-07-0717 minThe GiftThe GiftLiturgy in Slow Motion #2: 'Blessed is the Kingdom of God': the saints as sinews of the Body of ChristIn this second homily on the Divine Liturgy, Father Timothy considers the opening declaration, 'Blessed is the Kingdom', and how the saints act as sinews the Church, the Body of Christ, giving dynamic life to the skeleton bones of Bible, liturgy and hierarchy within the church, and giving living structure to our contemporary lives. We today are the flesh, but without bones and sinew, we are nothing. Without us, the flesh, the bones and sinews are also nothing. The Kingdom is Personal, the bones, sinews of the saints and us as the flesh, make the 2,000 years of church history...2019-06-3018 minThe GiftThe GiftLiturgy in Slow Motion #1: after Pentecost- redeeming the timeIn this episode, Fr Timothy marks the end of the Pentecost period, when we return to, and mark the rest of our lives according to, 'ordinary time'. But there is nothing ordinary about time when we have two words to use - chronos and kairos. We start the Divine Liturgy with the deacon informing the celebrant 'now is the perfect time to act, time to give the blessing'. A parishioner noted after the homily that " In Galatians 4, 4 : “But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under th...2019-06-2414 minThe GiftThe GiftPentecost: the gift of the Holy SpiritIn this homily, Fr Timothy explores the nature and role of the Holy Spirit, and the incarnation of God as the church. We become the Body of Christ, His eyes and ears, hands and feet. Father Timothy also briefly touches on the role of the Holy Spirit outside the church, the Giver of Life who is 'everywhere present and fills all things'.2019-06-1717 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Sunday of the Paralysed Man: the healing and transfiguring ministry of the churchFr Timothy considers the two readings, Gospel and Acts of the Apostles, that are read on the Sunday of the Paralysed man. They point clearly, in this Paschal season leading up to the Ascension of Christ, that at it's core the church's ministry is that of healing, not moralism. The judgement of the church should be like that of a physician, to identify the spiritual sores and paralysis and to heal, not to judge like in a legal court.2019-05-2214 minThe GiftThe GiftPascha: the Gift of Light, belief in doubtFr Timothy considers the Gospel of St John at the Vespers of Love on Pascha Sunday evening. The Gift of Love is taken out to the world.2019-04-2807 minThe GiftThe GiftHomily for the Lamentations service of Holy FridayFr Timothy explores the experience of the Myrhh bearing women as they approach the Tomb2019-04-2610 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Lamentations, St Anne's ChoirSt Anne's choir singing the Lamentations service from Holy Friday2019-04-2639 minThe GiftThe GiftGreat and Holy Thursday 2019Fr Timothy considers the true nature of Christian love in meditating on Christ's trial and crucifixion.2019-04-2609 minThe GiftThe GiftResurrection, what is it, really?In this homily, Fr Timothy considers the difference between 'resucitation' and resurrection. He contrasts Christ's raising of the son of the widow of Nain, and Lazarus who was definitely dead for 4 days, and His own Resurrection to eternal life. This helps us to understand a little of what is impossible to know; what it's like to exist beyond space and time, in the eternal presence of the glory of God.2019-04-2122 minThe GiftThe GiftLet all mortal flesh keep silenceHere is an extra gem for you: the choir of St Anne's singing the ancient hymn Let all mortal flesh keep silence (Greek: Σιγησάτω πᾶσα σάρξ βροτεία), also known as Let all mortal flesh keep silent, based on words from Habakkuk 2:20, "Let all the earth keep silence before him" (Hebrew: הַ֥ס מִפָּנָ֖יו כָּל־הָאָֽרֶץ‎ has mippanaw kol ha-erets). The original was composed in Greek as a Cherubic Hymn for the Offertory of the Divine Liturgy of St James.On Great and Holy Saturday morning, the 'little resurrection' is celebrated with a Vesperal Divine Liturgy of St Basil, and this hymn is the appointed cherubic hymn.  Here it is sung according to the  Gerard Moultrie translation...2019-04-1803 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowly #12 Silence and the Ladder of Divine AscentIn this homily, Fr Timothy considers the importance to silence and stillness (hesychia) to the Orthodox Christian tradition, despite all the words, movement, sounds and smells, the Christian encounters God's divine energies through the silence and stillness that is at the heart of the Divine Liturgy2019-04-0824 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Annunciation and Uncreated Energies of GodFr Timothy, for a moment forgetting the theme of Gift,  seeks to illustrate the theology of the Divine Energies of God, expressed more effectively by St Gregory Palamas, and the implications for our understanding of the difference between Mary as Birthgiver of Christ-God (begotten before all ages), rather than the Mother of God2019-03-2413 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowly #11. Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy upon me, a sinnerOn the Sunday of the Publican and Pharisee just before Lent, Fr Timothy considers pride and it's effects, driving the need to seek security in anything other than the Person of the Incarnate God, Jesus Christ.2019-03-1720 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Sacraments: marriage, monasticism and single life, relationships as iconIn this additional talk after the liturgy, Father Timothy muses on the nature of marriage and monastic life, both as means of holiness, and the importance of coming to both as whole and free persons in Christ.2019-03-1734 minThe GiftThe GiftExtra: on the Social Concept document of the Russian ChurchAs an extra, here is Fr Timothy speaking at the Annual conference of the Fellowship of St Sergius and St Alban in 2015 about 'Orthodox Social Teaching'2019-03-1750 minThe GiftThe GiftThe Liturgy Slowly #10: Forgiveness and healingThe progress through the liturgy is paused for the Sunday of Forgiveness as the Orthodox Christian enters liturgically into Lent.
