Presented here is a collection of talks and sermons by Russian
Orthodox Archpriest Georgy Neifakh (1953-2005). Father Georgy - a
former academic biologist, and later the builder and senior priest
of the Church of the Falling-Asleep of the Mother of God in the
city of Kurchatov, Russia - has spoken in these sermons and talks
about family life, the upbringing of children, prayerful concern
for our neighbors and kin, sincerity in faith and the harm to the
soul that comes from merely external piety, the possibility of
resisting the temptations peculiar to our time, and much else that
is important for everyone. Originally given during Lent, these
reflections on the eight categories of temptation and sin "the
passions," as the Church names them reveal both Fr. Georgy's
insight into our human condition and his refreshingly practical
advice for recognizing and dealing with these temptations. While
Fr. Georgy does not permit us excuses for our sin, he offers his
pastoral wisdom in a spirit of humility, as one who faces the same
struggles we do, offering companionship and encouragement, as well
as instruction, along the way.
