Today in Orthodoxy we commemorate Saint John the Baptist who was called by Christ the greatest man to be born of a woman. Father Micah shares with us how Saint John brought many diverse things into communion. Saint John lived a strict ascetic life and preached a message of repentance to the people so that they might prepare for the coming of The Messiah. His greatness can be seen through his humility, saying " I must decrease and He must increase."
