Why another blog

I have recently joined the Orthodox church and want to use this blog to reflect on my experiences, what I’m learning, and the practices of Orthodox Christianity. I also hope that folks who read it might be able to answer some of my questions. There is no particular audience for this site, except that I can’t imagine someone wanting to visit if they aren’t interested in the spiritual life and teachings of the Orthodox Church.

 One of my particular pleasures in Orthodox worship is the liturgy and its rich and edifying words and ethos, so you can anticipate reflections on the experience of that liturgy from the perspective of a slightly informed believing layman.
