Lyrics: My mother told me Someday I would buy Galleys with good oars Sails to distant shores Stand up on the prow Noble barque I steer Steady course to the haven Hew many foe-men Hew many foe-men
We are all familiar with the fierce pagan warriors that burst out of Scandinavia during the eighth century, the fierce pagan warriors, worshippers of northern gods such as Odin and Thor, burners of coastal settlements, taking men and women as slaves, trashing Christian monasteries, and sacrificing victims in the terrible rite of the ‘Blood Eagle’. However, lesser-known fact about these infamous pillagers is that the majority converted to Christianity in the centuries that followed.
The raids of these pagan warriors spread terror from Ireland to Russia, from France to North Africa, in the ninth and tenth centuries. They were the first Europeans to settle, albeit unsuccessfully, in North America. In most of these places their northern beliefs were noted by those who suffered their attacks. Christian contemporaries of the Viking raids in the British Isles often simply referred to them as “the pagans” and “the heathens”. Islamic writers, who recorded their attacks on Muslim Spain, described them as “fire-worshippers and pagans” and stated, “may Allah curse them”. So, the image of Vikings as marauding pagans was well established – then as now.
So we examine their settlements in Britain, Ireland, Normandy, Russia, the Northern and Western Isles, Iceland, Greenland and even North America. In most of these places, conversion to Christianity occurred within one generation. In England, the children of Vikings who had martyred King Edmund of East Anglia minted coins celebrating Saint Edmund; in Ireland, Christian Scandinavians fought on both sides at the battle of Clontarf in 1014; in the East, they rapidly converted to Orthodox Christianity and founded the first Russian state, based in Kiev; in Normandy, they became enthusiastic supporters of the heretical Frankish 'Papist' Church. It took longer to happen in Iceland, but even there it had occurred by the year 1000.
In conclusion, Before the Vikings left the world stage, they had a great influence on Orthodox Christianity. The first prince of what would become the Russian civilization, was Saint Vladimir of Kievan-Rus. At the center of Christendom, the Imperial City of Constantinople-New Rome, the elite Varangian Guard (the personal security of the Roman Emperor) was always composed of Vikings. The most famous captain of the Varangian Guard was King Harold Hardrada who died in 1066 in England.just STOP itGreek Orthodox Christian Television2023-05-13 | WATCH IT HERE: rumble.com/v2njh1i-just-stop-it.htmlAnti-Ecclesiastical SergianismGreek Orthodox Christian Television2023-05-12 | To watch this program please go to: rumble.com/v2ngflu-anti-ecclesiastical-sergianism.htmlThis ApostasyGreek Orthodox Christian Television2023-05-08 | rumble.com/v2mpdpe-the-great-apostasy.htmlThey are good for nothing.Greek Orthodox Christian Television2023-05-04 | A quote from St Theophan the Recluse on those who with respect to the Church are good for nothing.Let me Tell You of the so-called Good ThingsGreek Orthodox Christian Television2023-04-29 | St Gregory of Nyssa Quote(G)From the Monk Athanasios to the Holy TheotokosGreek Orthodox Christian Television2023-04-05 | This program presents the recitation of a poem by Manuel Philes (1275–1345 Μανουήλ Φιλής), who was a poet at the Court of the Roman Emperor in Constantinople.

Based on an essay by Reader John Granger. To read the original essay please visit: saint-irene.com/saint-nicholas-toastShould Christians Obey Government?Greek Orthodox Christian Television2022-12-15 | Fr Steven Allen wrote an essay titled, "Rendering Unto Caesar" of which this program is an adaptation. The essay discusses what it means to live as an Orthodox Christian and somehow also to be American. This discussion is useful not only for those living in the United States, of course, because “American” ideas about society and government have come to influence the whole world in one way or another. The essay asks the reader to ponder a specific moral question and its application to life in the United States and other nations that have adopted republican government inspired by the American example: What does it mean, in general, to obey the civil authority, as commanded by the Old and New Testaments and the Tradition of the Church? What does it mean, in particular, to those under a republican constitutional authority as opposed to a monarchy?
