I’m so mired in homework these days that my posts are largely reduced to quotes from significant people in Christian History. That may actually be more valuable to you in the long run.

For those of you fascinated by emerging liturgical forms, consider this polemical nugget from iconophile, John of Damascus:

“Perhaps you are sublime and and able to transcend what is material… but I, since I am a human being and bear a body, want to deal with holy things and behold them in a bodily manner.” (The Orthodox Faith IV. 16.)
