Orthodox fantasy fiction
Father Orthoduck is pleased that yet another Christian author has written in. And, this fantasy author is a fellow Antiochian Orthodox!

What does it mean to think Christianly? — part 03
“You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.” This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets. — Jesus of Nazareth […]
What does it mean to think Christianly? — part 02
