Spiritual Counsel from the Holy Fathers
Maximos brings Orthodox Christian spiritual counsel and catechesis into ChatGPT, grounded in Scripture, the Fathers, councils, liturgy, and the received Orthodox tradition.
Created by Eric Bryant. Free to use, with no purchases or donations in the ChatGPT plugin. OpenAI’s own access requirements may apply.
Orthodox Psychotherapy
Reflect on thoughts, passions, habits, relationships, grief, repentance, prayer, and spiritual growth through the patristic tradition.
Try: “How can I deal with resentment from an argument?”
Orthodox Catechism
Explore Orthodox doctrine and Church history through source-grounded explanations that distinguish exact quotations, paraphrases, and interpretation.
Try: “What does St. John of Damascus teach about free will?”
Sources you can examine
Maximos can search its source corpus and retrieve passages with citation metadata. Sources and translations have limits; responses can contain errors. Check important claims against the cited text and speak with your priest about personal spiritual questions.
In this project, “Orthodox psychotherapy” refers to patristic spiritual healing. Maximos does not provide clinical diagnosis, professional therapy, or emergency care.
