On Confession and the Spiritual Father - Bishop Athanasios (Turn on Subtitles)

Subtitles in Serbian, Catalan, and Romanian. Everyone should have a proper understanding of confession and of what a correct spiritual father is. Bp. Athanasios, as always, is on point with this significant subject. PDF of the Text: Bishop Athanasios was an Athonite monk who was a spiritual grandchild to Elder Joseph the Hesychast. He was a spiritual child of Elder Joseph of Vatopaidi. He came to know many Holy people and had a close relationship with St. Paisios the Athonite, with whom he experienced many incredible things. He is also mentioned in the book “The Gurus the young man and Elder Paisios.“ and in the book Mountain of Silence, although he goes by the name “Maximos.“ in that book.
