Closed Box Church

July 25, 2019/0 Comments/in The Next Step

Next Step #581: Back from Armenia and specifically a visit to the village of Sasnashen, site of the US Air Force C-130 Shoot Down, Fr. Vazken debriefs with the listeners in this episode. A preliminary look at the Sasnashen Youth Center Project. Closed boxed churches to keep God away from us: The need for relevance here, there and everywhere. Financial responsibility in the church: PETA would be proud of this model! Living legends continue to inspire with music – McCartney and Anderson. Touching Armenia via the spirit: Saluting the unsung heroes. And much more.
