John Chrysostom

Saint John Chrysostom, Archbishop of Constantinople, is one of the greatest preachers in Christian history. His surname “Chrysostom” means “Golden Mouth” in Greek, reflecting his extraordinary eloquence. Born around 349, he fearlessly denounced the vices of the powerful, which led to his exile. His liturgy is still used in the Eastern Church.
