Maximos Lih
Elder Maximos looks to the ancient text of Esther on how to find hope, resilience and liberation when violence strikes.
Psalm 139 is so much more than the oft quote verse "fearfully and wonderfully I have been made." Elder Maximos examines the historical context to see how this Psalm - and all the Psalms - were songs of liberation.
