Homily - Metropolitan Saba on Seeing Suffering Brightly
About this episode
Title: Seeing Suffering Brightly: Faith, Discipline, and the Light of Christ
Matthew 7:27-35; The Two Blind Men
In this homily, Fr. Anthony shares Metropolitan Saba's teaching from the 2025 Convention that true spiritual vision begins not in denial of suffering, but in faithful endurance of it, transforming evil through thanksgiving and trust in God. Drawing on real martyrdom and lived faith in places like Damascus, he challenges us to see God's love even in discipline and to witness to Christ with joy, courage, and unwavering hope.
