Practices and Distractions

Next Step #607: Rev. Martin Luther King and the message of non violence: Connecting to St. Vartan (451) and the Velvet Revolution (2018). Meeting with Rev.

Permanent and yet Relevant

Next Step #605: The week of Theophany (the RESET button) and the revelation of God from the Armodox perspective. Searching for a permanence in a message that has to remain pertinent and relevant.

All the things you don’t need to say at Theophany.
