In this powerful and convicting message, Fr. Elijah exposes one of the greatest enemies to our spiritual life: the ego. With raw honesty and pastoral depth, he unpacks how ego creeps into marriages, friendships, service, and even worship—silently killing love, unity, and repentance. From the Garden of Eden to the modern obsession with selfies, we explore how the need to be right, in control, and admired blinds us from seeing Christ clearly. But there is a way out: humility. Drawing from the teachings of St. John Climacus and the Ladder of Divine Ascent, this sermon offers practical ways to crucify the ego and live a life centered on Christ, not self. Whether you're struggling in your relationships, feeling distant from God, or simply want to grow in holiness—this talk will challenge you to choose the way of the Cross over the way of self.
