STUFF ABOUT GOD AND CHRISTIANITY | Dr. Ron Braley
This column represents the thoughts and opinions of Dr. Ron Braley. This is not the opinion of the Taylor Press.
Here, I was going to introduce you to my dog, Aragon. Instead, I’ll turn the Lent Orthodox duo into a trilogy and give you a bonus part III. You’ll meet Aragon next time. In parts I and II of Lent, Orthodox Style, I introduced you to Eastern/Greek orthodoxy and its Lent practices meant to aid Christian formation. The idea is to develop a rhythm of praying, giving, studying and fasting because these practices are of Christian importance. Lent also prepares the practitioner for Pascha, a celebration of Jesus’ resurrection, today’s subject.
