Orthodox Church History

This lesson provides an overview of how Christianity and the Christian Church began, from Christ, to certain cities becoming major hubs of Christianity, after which came the heresies that eventually divided the Church.

Later, the lesson shows the stunning fractioning of Christendom into an almost laughable amount of denominations, showing the year most of those started and by whom these denominations began.

Also check the following video, which is a great Sunday School lesson for everyone:

Let No One Despise Your Youth


“Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.” - 1 Timothy 4:12   

This lesson is based almost entirely on a lecture given by H.G. Bishop Youssef of the Southern Diocese of the United States.  It discusses various characters in the Old and New Testaments and how, in their youth, they were strong examples of why no one should look down at the youth and cast them off from being able to also be strong examples for Christ.
Job the Righteous

The lesson begins by providing some quick factual information related to Job the Righteous and the Coptic Church’s understanding of who he is. 

Then it goes on to explain what the book of Job is about, his righteousness, his virtues, and his major flaws.  

Finally, the lesson focuses on Satan and his involvement in tribulation, and then concludes with a discussion on spiritual languor.
History Of The Liturgy (first 5 centuries)

This is an attempt to summarize information gathered from various Coptic and non-Coptic scholarly sources, to try to understand why and how we received a written Liturgy of some form, in use in every Apostolic Church.  

The lesson takes you century by century, gleaning information from the Bible, Church Fathers and Mothers, historians, etc, trying to come to some understanding about the underpinnings of written Liturgies today.
