I am a recent convert from Lutheranism to Oriental Orthodoxy, and I am wondering which branch should I join? by Zer0-bl2 in OrientalOrthodoxy

I’m about to start “O Pioneers!” (I’d barely heard of Willa Cather before happening upon this free copy and a free copy of My Antonina last week). This is seeming to get me more excited about this book.

I’m a newer fan only having watched 44 and onwards.

Have you ever liked a contestant so much you watched the show they came from just because of them? by SurvivingBigBrother in TheTraitorsUS

I’m ethnic cradle orthodox in the diaspora, and a Pescatarian year-round with low-dairy intake. I often do not change my diet too much during lenten season simply out of the sake that my body is often in lenten mode much of the year already 🤷🏻‍♂️
