I write and speak on all sorts of topics: ancient Christian spirituality and the Eastern Orthodox faith, the Jesus Prayer, marriage and family, the pro-life cause, cultural issues, and more. You can contact Cynthia Damaskos of the Orthodox Speakers Bureau if you’d like to bring me to an event. This Calendar will let you know when I’m in your neighborhood.
In 1990, our family visited Paradise Gardens in Summervile, Georgia, the home of American visionary artist Howard Finster. (I returned to interview him in 1996.) Afterwards I wrote him a letter and asked if he had ever made an artwork that related to the abortion issue, since that was the field where I mostly engaged at the time. A few weeks later I received this small angel in the mail. It’s roughly 11" by 6". As far as I know it is the only one of its kind.
