Phones were active tonight for Fr. Evan Armatas:

My parish doesn't seem all that interested in bringing me into the Church; when do blessed things become unblessed; do the Orthodox believe we get a 2nd chance after death; how often should I take communion; and I'm a former Baptist minister - please tell me more about the Orthodox Faith.

Fr. Evan Armatas answers caller's questions tonight ranging from closed communion to the Holy Spirit.

It was non-stop calls on tonight's episode of Orthodox Live with Fr. Evan Armatas. Questions about self-care, healing grace for non Orthodox, closed communion, and others. Don't miss the question at the end from an anonymous listener in the chat room who is coming to the Church from a life of organized crime. He's fearful for his life and his soul before he has a chance to get baptized.
