Description: Weblog dealing with church, Christianity, and postmodernity.
The blog formerly known as TheHeresy.com I had this brought home to me quite profoundly the second Sunday I attended an Orthodox church. My priest, Father Gregory Horton, had invited my wife and I to dinner at his home. As our wives worked together in the kitchen preparing the meal, he and I discussed theology. At one point, he posed the question to me, “Matthew, what is grace?†I must confess that I was a little put off by that. For a second, I felt, “Does Father really think me so spiritually immature that I do not know what grace is?†So I responded very quickly, and anyone who is listening to this who has had experience with Western Christian theology knows exactly how I answered it. I proudly asserted, and we all know this, right? “Grace is God’s unmerited favor.†Father smile at me, chuckled a little and said, “Why is it that everything is a thing for you Westerners?†I had no idea what he meant, so to end my confusion, I demanded, “Well then, you tell me, what is it?†“Grace, dear Matthew,†he replied, still smiling, “is the Holy Spirit.â€
