Post Easter Victory for Victims

/0 Comments/in /by

Next Step #151 – April 28, 2011

Easter celebrations are over, Genocide commemorations have stopped, but the real work of In His Shoes continues in highlighting Resurrection over Crucifixion. Recap and commentary on the Fast for Darfur. Defining the Church as the Sacred Body of Christ, and the overwhelming power of national aspirations. And in the world… Prince William gets married, Obama proves he’s a citizen and Superman denounces his US Citizenship.

Next Step #150 – April 21, 2011

An Easter Special in complete Armodox Tradition. Life over death, love over hatred, light over darkness, good over evil, Govya Yerousaghem over Ee Verin.

Putting on the sandles of Christ; Taking up Christ’s Cross OR Taking Christ up to the Cross?

Working Class Weapons

/0 Comments/in /by

Next Step #149 – April 14, 2011

Preparing for the meeting of Light & Darkness – Easter and Armenian Genocide Commemoration – a year in the planning via In His Shoes. Jesus was open to the possibility of learning and the “working class hero” opens our minds. Church/Priest being accessible. Finding a weapon of choice – especially when weapons are the only means of salvation! Here is the Armodox answer to violence – peace is promised and also attainable. Borrowing from our children – what world are we leaving them with? Family life – do you really want others to pray for you? Jerusalem (Govya Yerousaghem) is for victors, the Eternal Jerusalem (Ee Verin Yerousaghem) is consolation for the victims.
