Jessica — yes! It sounds like we would have a wonderful time talking over coffee. While I’m not very familiar with Eastern Orthodoxy, I am finding that I’m very interested in learning more about it. The Jesus Prayer is fascinating — much to say there. I’ve only begun to scratch the surface of the Desert Fathers and Mothers through the writings of others. I feel like I might be able to read the actual writings now that I have some reference points.

I love your blog — what an opportunity you guys have. Would love to chat more!
