Not All Gentleness Is Good

About this sermon

Bishop Irenei of London & Western Europe (ROCOR) What does it mean to love fiercely in a world that confuses strength with cruelty and gentleness with virtue? In this powerful sermon, we explore how Christians are called to balance fierceness and gentleness, following the example of Jesus Christ. Discover how true pastoral care, self-discipline, and even the making of holy bread (prosphora) reveal the spiritual necessity of strength. Download the *Patristic Nectar App* on any platform!
