Well I like the Eastern Orthodox Church. I always have. I think they preserve a lot of good early church tradition, and unlike the CC have not contaminated it with as much false doctrine that went too far.

I'm just not a compete adherent to the EOC's doctrine's, being non-denominational now for decades, so I would view their positions more as an outsider than you would. But I do view them quite highly as denominations go.

Have you ever considered attending?

No, Lana. I've become so accustomed to serving the Lord in my daily routine that services are almost an afterthought at this point. I'm sure I would likely enjoy a visit sometime, however, so if the opportunity should come up that someone local invites me, I'll certainly keep it under consideration.

How are you doing on your fast, any better?

Why not experiencing Him in Liturgy?
 
Not a Liturgy guy.
So you're not a 'participating in the heavenly worship that's been ongoing since the dawn of creation' kind of guy? Not a 'standing with the saints and angels in awe of God's majesty' kind of guy?' Liturgy isn't just ritual—it's the closest thing to heaven on earth.
