Just got back from camp. I think Orthodox camping ministries might be the most important thing we do right now. If you are not involved in some way, you should consider.

I'm not sure why I'm sharing this, maybe looking for validation? So, I'm friends with an older Orthodox Christian on facebook. Used to be at the same parish, but not anymore. He taught Sunday school and sang in the choir. I respect him. Based on his facebook posts I have learned that he is...

Is it just me or does anyone else see this creepy clown craze as perfectly ironic???

Just wondering what others think or would think... Some people want a Nativity Scene for our church - to set up inside - somewhere near the iconostasis. Good idea? Bad idea?

This seems to be getting a lot attention on social media, so I thought I'd throw it in here for comments. Pretty black and white for those looking for direction... I few interesting points as well - like forbidding priests from refusing to sign marriage license of "orthodox couple" ie Fr...

New word added to the dictionary - I think they got the definition wrong though - should be fasting without prayer makes one hangry:)

I thought it might be interesting to turn this around a look at it from another direction. Is it possible to be a scientist (or scientific if you wish) and believe that the earth was created according the a literal timeline based on Genesis ie in 6 days around 6000 years? What would your...

So...as I'm sure you all know, yesterday was the Annunciation. We didn't make it to church - no excuse - just lazy I guess. Anyway - since we didn't go to church, we read the story together as a family from the Gospel of Luke. When we finished reading, it struck me how different the Luke...

Tragedy: Fr. Matthew Baker: Memory Eternal! ? Orthodoxy and Heterodoxy <Staff Edit>

So - GK Chesterton hasn't been mentioned in a while... I started reading "Orthodoxy" last night, and he kept talking about "Hanwell", as if that helped make his point. I was completely confused, because I had no idea what "Hanwell" is or was. I looked it up this morning and it's an asylum...

So...another thread from the headlines...my first reaction was - "so what..." Multi-millionaires playing the sympathy card don't get much of a reaction from me - BUT, it seems that he isn't actually playing a sympathy/victim card - he is claiming that "being gay" is a bless from God. I...

Did anyone else read the warning by Elon Musk - that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is tantamount to summoning demons. I don't know his religious background, but thought it was very interesting because he is respected within the science & technology field and here he is making a rather...
