Episode notes
It has been said that only once in a hundred years does Greece produce an elder such as Elder Porphyrios (1906–1991), who has become renowned as one of the greatest spiritual fathers of the last century. Thousands of people, not only from Greece but from all over the world, came to him for advice and help. Using his gifts of clairvoyance, healing, and miracle-working he brought a vast number of souls to the Church of Christ, the Orthodox Church.
In this talk, Father Kosmas looks at Elder Porphyrios’ sixty years as a spiritual father. He presents many examples of how the elder dealt with those who came to him for confession, guidance and healing. Although the examples are specific to the people who came to the elder, Father Kosmas points out the spiritual benefit the listener can derive from them.
