Well, I thought that I was being notified of updates, but I guess I forgot to check the box! I'll order the book as soon as pay-day rolls around (I think that will be Tuesday...). This should be fun.

I have to say, though, I often find it hard to apply a lot of these books to my life, being a ...

I think that it sounds like a great idea. I had planned only to check my email during Holy Lent, and not to use any other websites, but I'd be willing to make an exception for a book-club sort of thing. Do you have any ideas yet, as to which book to read?

Aww, come on Justin...you haven't done anything wrong. But if it'll make you feel better, how does it go? "God forgives and I forgive"?

The Ladder

I know that it's an old tradition to read The Ladder (by St. John) during Holy Lent. Does anyone have any sort of curriculum that fits the entire work into the 40 day period?

So, St. Basil says that if you join the Army, you shouldn't commune for 5 years? I never knew that! I'm going to ask the priest about it on Sunday...as for killing someone, I think that the going rate these days is a year (if you kill someone in self-defense or combat). Still, how do you explain St ...
