The Joy of the Resurrection

Video

H H.E. Archbishop Angaelos 4 July 2026

What does the Resurrection actually change? Everything. In this conversation, His Eminence Archbishop Angaelos answers honest, searching questions about faith, suffering and hope — and shows how the empty tomb transforms the way we live every ordinary day.

The Resurrection is not a happy ending bolted onto a sad story; it is the demonstration that death itself has been defeated. The apparent defeat of the Cross became the greatest victory, and so our own defeats — grief, failure, fear — are never the last word.

“Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down death by death, and upon those in the tombs bestowing life.”
— Paschal Hymn

Watch the full conversation above, and may the joy of the Risen Lord fill your home this season.
