ლევან ჯავახიშვილიThanks for this link. I was thinking about this very topic last night in the kitchen as I kneaded the dough – that the ultimate goal is not the yeast or the flavor, but Christ himself. Geront Ephraim's words sound very simple and direct.

Теодора ПетроваThanks for the link. Yesterday, just as I was reading the title, I remembered how last week at school I was explaining to the kids that the purpose of drawing is not just to color the paper, but to get to something bigger. Geront Ephrem's voice is so clear, it's like he's talking to you in the kitchen. I'll listen this afternoon while I make dinner.
