The one who does not come to church... | St. Ignatius of Antioch | The Holy Fathers On Prayer

Reflections on prayer in the writings of St. Ignatius of Antioch (Theophorus)
In this video, Fr. Adrian Podaru emphasizes that "our presence at the Divine Liturgy is an exercise of spiritual altruism: I care for the other, that is why I participate in the Church's prayer."
Fr. Dr. Adrian Podaru is Lecturer in Patristics at the Faculty of Orthodox Theology in Cluj-Napoca, Romania.
