Next Step #448: Theophany Eve edition. Syncing with God’s Cosmic calendar. Looking inside the manger to become an image in an icon and delivering better gifts than frankincense, gold and myrrh. Armodoxy’s stand for the New Year and Fr. Vazken’s Christmas message. Water Blessing at Theophany – what happens when a Mayor gives her obligatory message and takes Christ out? Expected from a mayor but from a church? The possibility of Christianity without Christ – not a slow process.

Next Step #395: Some year end thoughts, about the Centennial, the challenge to be, the quest for courage and the audacity to proclaim victory. Taking off on Christ’s words, “Courage, the victory is mine, I have overcome the world.” (John 16) Fr. Vazken connects the dots left throughout the year. The Icon of the Holy Martyrs’ is consecrated locally – some excerpts. Happy New Year!

Revelations from the River to the Oven

Next Step #30 – January 7, 2009

The first broadcast of the New Year brings in a new message of revealed love. Fr. Vazken takes the listener from the River Jordan to temperatures beyond Fahrenheit. Is that Setrak or Shadrach? Misak or Meshach? Abo or Satchmo? What? Even Louis makes an appearance on this podcast, but who’s singing the Song of the Three? The oven is full of protest but hope for tomorrow. Tune in to start the new year with a revelation that comes only from above.

Next Step #27 – December 17, 2008

Celebrating Christmas before or after the New Year. Does it matter? To some yes, but from the Armenian Orthodox perspective, it’s one of many trappings that skew us from the Truth. What about the Bible? Did it come from God? Dare we say that there are means to God beyond the Bible? And if so, what does that say about the truth of the Bible? Find out in this podcast which explains a bit more than the date of Christmas. Travel back in time to the first thoughts of religion and find out how fact and truth can end up on two different sides of the coin. And all this occurs as our planet takes a spin around the outer rim of its orbit around the Sun. Happy Solstice and a Merry Christmas to all!
