Kodak Moment No More

Next Step #500: The New Year kicks off with a look at one of the giants that didn’t make it to 2018. Unable to adapt and slow to accept changes, Kodak presents a prophetic picture as the Spirit of the Future. Fr. Vazken talks about the church, the challenges to the community of believers and a Darwinian understanding of survival. Commitment to the disenfranchised and the circle of Christian understanding.
