Saint Maximos
Maximos the Confessor lived as a prominent citizen, highly ranked in Constantinople from 580 to 662 A.D. He joined the imperial administration from an early age, became a monk at the Monastery of Chrysoupolis and returned to Constantinople in an attempt to avoid the Persians. From there, he went to North Africa where he started his fight against Monothelitism and Monophysitism. In 646 AD he organized an ecclesiastical synod in Rome against Monothelitism, where the doctrine was condemned which made him turn against the emperor Constas II. He was tried in Constantinople and was convicted to exile in Lazica of Pontos. Soon after that, he died. His memory is celebrated by the Orthodox, Catholic, Lutheran and the Anglican Church.
