Looks great! The About page reminded me of something I read from Hieromonk Gabriel at Holy Cross Monastery a while back:

"I have often thought that, in many ways, the spiritual life comes down simply to remembering the things that we know — and yet so often forget. As a spiritual father, it frequently seems to me that my role consists not so much in teaching others something new as in reminding them of the truths they already know, and which they need at that particular moment to bear in mind."

"...in learning to inhabit the holy dimension of memory—we can begin to encounter wholeness." Love that, "holy dimensions of memory". Thank you for this writing. I like the new name and logo.

Thank you for your work here at this blog. I've enjoyed following so far. I wanted to let you know that there's another Orthodox substack page that is also called All These Things:

I figured you might want to be aware because it could lead to potential confusion at times. 😊
