The archpriest managed to do many good deeds. It is worth the fact that he was the rector of 7 temples. He did a lot for people: he headed various educational programs, helped build temples and headed seminaries. But his main merit as a spiritual father is to put people back on the right path.

All of Dimitri Smirnov’s sermons and interviews are disassembled into quotes. And I'd like to cite a few of them.

“By definition, patriotism is love for one’s homeland, love for one’s religion, love for one’s people, one’s history, one’s culture.” A true patriot cannot hate someone else. He may be misunderstood. He might not like something. But hate?! Nope. Patriotism is love.

Only a true patriot and at the same time a highly spiritual person could say this. Words that express kindness. Dmitry Smirnov’s sermons are always good and interesting instructions.

By the way, to all those who would like to join the faith even more densely, I recommend the multimedia blog of Archpriest Dimitry Smirnov. There you will find more sermons and interviews with various priests.

Another powerful quote:

“If you judge someone, it is in you, and you will be judged for it, as you judge another. This is a very clear, absolutely indisputable mechanism. Therefore, we must be terribly afraid of condemnation and avoid it in every way.”

Great words that each of us should take as a rule of life.

“Try to treat people with love, remembering that all of us are sinners, all of us are sick, all of us are in the infirmary and no one can help us: all of us are equally unhappy, ragged, nervous. Therefore, we must treat everyone with condescension, with patience, and not strive to isolate ourselves from everyone and arrange some kind of life more or less calmly.”

Even in the multiblog there are many interesting conversations of the Archpriest with interesting people, and one of them with Peter Mamonov.
