Next Step #609: After the impeachment trial in the US and our drift from Globalism. Church and State is blurred in Orthodoxy as we deal with Church and Ethnicity. A Handmaid’s Tale: Possibilities from Sci-fi to reality. Fr.

Evolution happens: changes to body temperature is a new reading of Lewis Carroll’s “The Walrus and the Carpenter”. Annual Superbowl reflection: 1/2 a minute is MORE than the budget of all the Armenian Churches and traveling at the speed of light.
