Naaman, the Nazarenes, and the Germans
To vary Oscar Wilde, the Church’s liturgical life often imitates art by being strikingly appropriate to a particular moment.

The photo featured 100 plus smiling faces from his congregation, with a caption that read, “Come Join Us!” On close examination, I noticed a rather comical looking face, which appeared many times in the photo.
