Riff Swapping

/0 Comments/in

Next Step #417: The challenges of the day met with relevancy: the power of music – and defining life. The Gor Passport debut; Different riffs – comments by Ian Anderson, from Beethoven to Deep Purple; AC101 video goes viral – it may not be for reasons of our liking. Evolutionary Music from hand holding to military protest. This and much more.

Depth of Spirit

/0 Comments/in

Next Step #415: When a daughter brings her father’s treasures to Fr. Vazken, it sets the backdrop for three dimensional conversation. Pentecost is the coming of the Holy Spirit which adds depth to the flatness of two dimensional reality making the Church active. The obligation to speak out with the voice.

Ho Sank

/0 Comments/in

Next Step #414: Conditioning from different directions. Getting caught in the flow of life… what the standard laugh-track on sitcoms tells us about the producers, what your Facebook feed tells you about the editors and what the “brilliance” of Beyonce’s Lemonade tells you about pop music sales. Strike Ephesians: Ho sank! Fr. Vazken connects the dots in this explanatory journey.

Inside Logical Margins

/0 Comments/in

Next Step #413: From a lecture by Prof. Hrair Dekmejian, some thoughts on the prospect for strength and peace in Karabagh – taping into the Christianity the “Artsakh way.”  Finding the miracle: “the Epicenter of that Miracle is the Church.” No holding punches here.  Also the business of the church as an institution with function. Ascension Day Miracle: Survival with the 3rd person. Debut of the new Gor Mkhitarian Album: Passport. Mother’s Day thoughts and Mother Armenia.

Metaphysical Paralysis

/0 Comments/in

Next Step #412: From accidents to determinism, the factors that defy fatalism make for a background to a metaphysical analysis. The aftermath and afterglow of 101 years and counting. Political myth and hype that keeps the masses entertained. Opportunities missed and the next step.

Ahead of the Game

/0 Comments/in

Next Step #411: Disenfranchised/Disillusioned Priests: Moving beyond “Props” and finding a message of “Liberation” through Christ. More political humor… Here is a message for the 101st Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. Sainthood of the Martyrs moving to victory from victimization. And some personal reflections from the early Karabagh movement. Good feelings for a few words.

Props for the Play

/0 Comments/in

Next Step #410: Quest for Peace – a different way of looking at responsibility in Artsakh & Armenia. As clergy are placed as props* in the grand opera, here’s a chance to reject political agendas and opt for self-determination in sync with Christ’s invitation. Taking Christ OUT of the Church is not too bad when you realize it’s demanded by Christ Himself. Much food for thought in this edition.
* Definition of Prop: a pole or beam used as a support or to keep something in position, typically one that is not an integral part of the thing supported.

Effective Prayer & Protest

/0 Comments/in

Next Step #409: Attack on Artsakh and Armenia. You’re asked to pray; now let’s make it effective. Are all wars really civil wars in the sight of God? Does God have his favorites and pick sides? Imagine no borders and imagine an end of evil? Is it easy, if you try? Concentrated protest with an edge – leveraging love and finding God. Comparing with MLK and finding the secret advantage. “Death of God” – 50 years later. Personal story: A baptism for all the right reasons.

Logical Proof

/0 Comments/in

Next Step #408: What the early Apostolic Church tells us about the Resurrection. Post Resurrection and post Easter ties: Looking beyond faith to logic to explain the illogical. A miracle happens when an autistic boy jumps from his seat in the church. A quick trip to SF and Ken’s back from Cuba – getting prepared to drive the long distance.
