Contraception and the Orthodox Church: With the 1937 and 1978 Encyclicals of the Church of Greece

By: Tikhon Alexander Pino PhD

Narrated by: Father Josiah Trenham

The tradition of the Church is consistent and has been passed on to us unchanged from the times of the apostles. It teaches that the avoidance of children is a lawless act and a deliberate resistance by man to the will of God. If, in this matter, even heterodox Churches have tried not to deviate from this tradition, all the more is faithful adherence incumbent upon us the Orthodox, the unbending custodians of the dogmatic and moral truths handed down to us from the beginning.

Finally some clarification to the Orthodox Stance

Lots of confusion in this realm nowadays with strange thoughts and idea foreign to the Orthodox ‘phronema’ that has been solid on this issue up until about 5 min ago. Thank you!

Interesting but not enough

Good and solid book that presents facts in a clear way. Although many questions (mine) remain unanswered. But that's not the fault of this book. Hopefully this book will start a discussion about this issue where many questions will be raised and answered.

Based.

This book is based. Very based. Contraception = bad, babies = good. Thank you Fr. Josiah Trenham! God Bless!
