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 #291 – January 2, 2014

The New Year kicks off with a wild and fun ride through some fun places. Put on your head-gear, fasten your seat belt and drop the fear. In this episode Fr. Vazken takes the listener on a car ride with a clear windshield and a small rear view mirror. A great way to start the New Year and New Life as is the message of Theophany – GOD revealed among us. Not for the weak at heart (but the Rose Parade softens it up a bit).
