Book of Akathists

Welcome to the Book of Akathists YouTube Channel. Featuring prayer hymns from the Book of Akathists, and this is where we took our name. Akathist means to not sit. These are standing devotional prayers by definition. However, I’m sure it’s fine to pray these any way you are able. The akathists contain a tremendous amount of information, history, theology, perspective, and Orthodox mindset. We occasionally share thoughts and stories about Orthodoxy as well. These prayers, thoughts, and stories have blessed us personally and we hope they bless you as well. Glory to God in all things.

"A religious hymn is a great blessing for everyone. It brings about a complete Spiritual uplifting and absolute peace and joy in redeemed hearts. It drives away hardness of heart… it dissolves and dissipates despondency."
~Saint Ambrose of Milan
