Coming into the Orthodox Church into a Serbian parish of all places has probably been a bit of a culture shock for you. If I can give you any advice at all, seek out any old peasants you can (likely refugees from Bosnia and Kosovo) and talk to them. You'll learn more about an agrarian life in one afternoon than you could in a year here in the US.<BR/><BR/>Agrarianism and Orthodoxy seem to go hand in hand, it is a shame there is not more written about living an agrarian life in an Orthodox milieu.Radoje S.http://www.blogger.com/profile/14082230637050820468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28543795.post-89968403463792728532008-02-05T18:10:00.000-08:002008-02-05T18:10:00.000-08:00I just came across your blog, and added it to my feeds; I'm an agrarian (I studied at Geneva College under Eric Miller, who wrote for the New Pantagruel; Caleb Stegall is a Geneva alum as well), and was received into the Orthodox Church at a Serbian parish in Chicago last month. I'm excited to find more Orthodox who are interested in agrarian thought - I've taken to describing Schmemann's <I>For the Life of the World</I> to friends as "something like Wendell Berry on the Eucharist."Adamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05460530436137778130noreply@blogger.com
