Byzantine Saints: Saint Clement of Ochrid, Bishop of Greater Macedonia, (27 July)

About this sermon

St. Clement of Ohrid, Equal to the Apostles, together with Saints Nahum, Sava, Gorazd, and Angelar, stands among the greatest missionaries in Christian history. As faithful disciples of Saints Cyril and Methodius, they endured persecution, imprisonment, exile, and torture to preserve the Orthodox Christian faith and establish the Slavic liturgical tradition. In this episode, we explore the remarkable lives of these holy confessors who defended the use of the Slavic language in divine worship against fierce opposition. After suffering imprisonment and exile from Moravia, they carried the light of the Gospel into Bulgaria and Macedonia, where St. Clement established schools, ordained thousands of clergy, translated sacred texts, and became the first great Slavic author and bishop.
