DG-22-01 Icons for Evangelism: Ss. Cyril and Methodius
This scholarly challenge shows the model of evangelism used by Saints Cyril and
Methodius to take the gospel to the Slavs in the 9th Century. This model was based
on the Apostles, Scripture, and Tradition. An outstanding message!
DG-22-02 Icons for Evangelism: Cosmos the
Atolian
This message gives great insights into the struggles of the Church under Moslem
rule in the East and the doctrinal aberrations in the West during the last 1000 years.
Fr. George Dragas explains how St. Cosmos evangelized Albania and Greece in the 18th
century.
DG-22-03 Our Task Today in Missions and
Evangelism
Fr. George Dragas draws on the church fathers to challenge us with evangelism in
the way of the Apostles to bring the light of Christ to all men. Inspiring!
FJ-22-01 Building a
Mission from Ground Zero
This is a personal and piercing challenge. Fr. John advocates 1)
Getting rid of the convert (cradle vs. Convert Christians) mentality which divides people.
2) Orthodoxy is not one of the choices for a church - Christ is building One Church.
3) Get rid of the jesting and good old boys club and instead encourage one another.
FJ-22-02 Spiritual
Formation of Missions
To build a mission we need to set our own personal house in order. First we
should not be a slave to finances. Get out of debt. We can't bring America to
the Orthodox faith if we don't love America. Fr. John Finley
draws on the four things we have in America as recounted by his Bishop. In America
we have Human rights, Opportunity, Freedom and Beauty. This is a touching message.
Very inspirational!

OM-22-01 Case Study in Orthodox Evangelism:
The Conversion of Alaska - 1998
For Christians, harmony with all creation is restored in Christ. This
lecture explains how the Orthodox missionaries transformed the Alaskan culture from pagan
to Christian without destroying the culture as happened in the lower 48 states. Fr.
Michael Oleksa is a great story teller and weaves teaching with entertainment to get
across his points. Highly recommended.
OM-22-02 What We Can Learn from Alaska for
Evangelizing Modern America - 1998
Fr. Michael Oleksa draws on the history of the evangelization of Alaska to show
that: 1) Mission work is the work of the laity. 2) Courage in the face of
opposition is essential. 3) Personal holiness or piety will draw people to you.
4) Humility wins the most conflicts. 5) St. Innocent says prayer is the means - it
is essential.

1994

ministry.

1994

RJ-22-03 Selling Evangelism to a
Reluctant Parish
Church growth threatens the current power structure. This is a practical
application of principles taken from the letters to the seven churches in the book of
Revelation. To have church growth we must 1) Fall in love with our Lord Jesus,
2) Have convictions that Jesus is the difference between heaven and hell, 3) Define
the vision for your church.
