Bishop Theotim of Tomis, known for his ascetic life and profound wisdom, once encountered a group of Arian heretics who challenged his teachings. Instead of engaging in a heated debate, he invited them to his humble dwelling. There, he washed their feet and shared a simple meal, demonstrating Christ's love through action rather than words. Touched by his humility, many of them repented and returned to the Orthodox faith.

Pray that the spirit of humility and love exemplified by #Theotim may guide us in our interactions, fostering unity and understanding. #OrthodoxSaints #Bishop #Love #Humility #Faith
