Real Life (RL)

I am an online gamer. As such, a couple of nights a week I immerse myself in a fantasy world where, with other gamers, I “group” together to accomplish objectives (usually killing evil creatures, which nets you game money, increased power for your character, etc.). Some gamers immerse themselves too deeply in the game, and […]

https://www.daathize.com.br/nbc8v922 Thank you for your prayers. At this point the rain has slowed down here, there have even been periods of no rain, and the skies are starting to lighten, though still completely overcast. I have checked with several of our people, and Kh. Denise has checked with several more, and everyone seems to be OK […]

https://www.suitupmaine.org/8yj9fqzkdr5 The last 48 hours brought to mind that old Sunday School song which has the lyrics about Noah building God an arky arky and bringing in the animals by twosies twosies.

That believing you may have life

On another blog a comment was made about a church sign that says, “The Bible shows us a picture of who we really are.” It said that the picture that is showed is one of marauding, murdering, racist, and xenophobic people. And, actually, there is some truth to that evaluation. Jonah is recorded as so disliking the […]
Lowering the drinking age
https://electroseleccio.cat/q8tdfgc9 A website reports an interesting story on how college presidents believe that it is time to lower the drinking age to the voting age. Apparently, college drinking tends towards binge drinking precisely because it is forbidden. Actually, this is not that strange. St. Paul warned us a long time ago that if we forbid something, there is […]
Church planting
https://www.ordovicianatlas.org/itueaoix I was talking to an old friend of mine tonight. — Yes, an old friend, he is retired now and was best man at my wedding 30 years ago. — He happens to be a church growth statistic geek. When he was young, he was involved in a college campus ministry. After that, he spent […]
Frank Schaeffer and Russia
· by 5 Comments
Recently, a well know Orthodox writer, Frank Schaeffer, wrote an opinion blog on the invasion of Georgia by Russia. It was answered by a rather strong column by another blogger (warning, strong language used). In the article, Frank Schaeffer says: “As Russia sees it, Bill Clinton turned the American Air Force into air support for an Islamic […]

Many of them contain some story or other that either has a deep meaning, or tell an incredible story, or give us the truth behind some event. Unfortunately many of them are wrong. And, they are […]
Martha & Mary – the Gospel of the Dormition
http://www.galleriamoitre.com/xashw3c54v Sometimes the lectionary reading chosen for a particular feast can give us an unexpected insight into what our Church Fathers thought was important. The reading for today’s Feast of the Dormition of the Theotokos is one such reading. It was from Luke 10:38-42, the famous passage about Martha’s anger that Mary was listening to our […]
