A Special Talk ~ Saturday, March 21, 2009

Using references to Orthodox Christian resources from New Testament to the
present time, Father John Brian Paprock, Orthodox Christian priest, draws on the
writings St Matthew, St Paul (Romans chapter 12), St John Chrysostom (Three wars
passage of Homily on 1st Timothy), Armenian Catholicos Karekin II and others. He
uses stories and examples from the lives of the desert fathers, St Seraphim of
Sarov, Martin Luther King Jr and Gandhi. In addition to his own life examples
and experience.

This is the two hour talk (in three parts) by Father John Brian at the
invitation of the Joyful Path Buddhist Center in Blue Mounds, Wisconsin. [photos
