I always thought that the liturgy of St. Basil is directed to the son, not the trinity. Not that I don't trust you, but do you mind finding me a source indicating th…
The teaching is that St.Basil's liturgy is towards the Holy Trinity, St.Gregory's is towards the Savior and St. Cyril's is towards the Father (the Pantocrator). So Je nai nan was taught to be said, including all three Persons, in St. Basil's. You wa…

Psalm 150 says "Praise God in all His saints" so of course it is ok.
The glorification glorifies God by celebrating his saints. If one thinks that the glorification is in a…
i think we need to stop considering what "makes sense" to sing or not whenever we want. if i use the same argument you guys are using, i can say omonogenis every day in liturgy as it is one of the greatest hymns about our Lord that put the His entir…

You are in texas rit?....we have a monastery there. http://abbey.suscopts.org/ see if you can visit or even spend sometime there. Actually, Fr. Daniel, who is in charge of the retreat house (small individual retreats), is a convert.
