On Wednesday, October 5th Christ the Saviour Orthodox Church was blessed to host an evening lecture entitled "The Way of Christ is Easy... We Just Make it Hard!" with Fr. Joseph Huneycutt.  Fr. Joseph is the author of the "Orthodixie" internet blog, as well as three books published by Conciliar Press. He is also the host of the "Orthodixie" podcast on Ancient Faith Radio. Over 70 parishioners and guests attended his witty, substantive, and engaging lecture.

We learned that the theme of the talk - "The Way of Christ is Easy... We Just Make it Hard" is the first part of a quote from an Athonite elder which actually continues to say: "The way of Christ is easy, we just make it hard because we don't want to do it."  Food for thought and much discernment! May God continue to bless and strengthen Fr. Joseph in his parish ministry, as well as his ministry through the internet and in offering lectures throughout the country!
