Many believers complain that they do not have a confessor. They rush from coming to the arrival, from one priest to another. This comes from ignorance of the laws of the arrangement of spiritual life. The confessor for the believer is every priest, to whom he proceeds for confession or the adoption of other sacraments of the Orthodox Church. Kodna The woman turned in a letter to St. Theophan the Recluse with a complaint that she had no confessor, he answered her: “How not? Where do you confess and take communion? Where do you go to the temple to the service? There is your confessor ... ”Another thing is the spiritual leader. Here we must choose the most experienced, the most skillful in spiritual life, because every priest can allow from sins, and to teach spiritual life is only one of the few.
As the Holy Fathers advise, before choosing a spiritual mentor to himself, it should be made sure that his life corresponds to the commandments of God, and his word is unshakable at the Holy Scriptures and the patristic tradition
