*The Divine Liturgy Curriculum was taken off of Illumination Learning on June 30, 2025. <\/strong>(See “Orthodox Curriculum News” for more info<\/a>)<\/p>\n

I am currently revising and expanding the Divine Liturgy Curriculum and it will be available for purchase from Ancient Faith Publishing, God willing, in 2026.<\/p>\n

I would like to offer the Gospel of Luke lessons<\/a> as an alternative for this year. This was one of our parish’s favorite years. While the focus is on Luke\u2019s gospel, we also covered the other two synoptic gospels a little too. During this year, our primary focus was on learning to read icons in relation to the synoptic gospels. We also learned about where several of these events occured on a map and developed many connections between the gospels and our lives as Orthodox Christians.<\/p>\n

Good strength for your coming year!<\/p>\n

We cannot understand our worship without knowing the Scriptures. Yet the same is true vice versa: The meaning of the Scriptures is disclosed in worship.<\/p>\n
