Why Do You Seek the Living Among the Dead? Part 6: The Heavenly Mindset

n this final and fiery installment of the “Why Do You Seek the Living Among the Dead?” series, Fr. Elijah exposes the battlefield of the Christian mind and calls believers to rise above the noise by acquiring the heavenly mindset.
The resurrection isn’t just an event—it’s a way of thinking.
It’s a mindset that says: “I don’t belong to the grave. I belong to glory.”
🔥 This talk dives deep into:
The power of your thoughts and how Satan hijacks the mind through fear, doubt, and shame
The Church Fathers’ wisdom on watchfulness and guarding the heart
Neuroscience meets spirituality: how to reshape mental patterns through truth, Scripture, and repetition
How narratives we create about ourselves, others, and God keep us trapped—and how to break free
The role of the Eucharist, community, confession, and Scripture in healing the mind
Fr. Elijah offers practical tools:
🔹 Catch it. Name it. Replace it.
🔹 Check in with God morning, noon, and night.
🔹 Stop feeding thoughts that weren’t planted by Christ.
💬 “You’re not the voice in your head. You are who God says you are.”
💬 “Don’t be a stupid. Set your mind on things above.”
This isn’t self-help. This is spiritual war. And the Spirit comes not to comfort us in our numbness—but to set us on fire.
