… for the inactivity of Eirenikon! There has been no shortage of important news and other items relating to the unity of the Church; but unfortunately, I have been almost completely preoccupied with various other projects.
I have also given some thought, during the hiatus, to the future of this blog. I started blogging on the topic of Orthodox-Catholic dialogue a little over four years ago, in January of 2007, beginning with this blog’s predecessor, Cathedra Unitatis. If I may display my heart on my sleeve for just a moment (something for which I was greatly criticized in the CU days), I feel as if I’ve grown a great deal – both intellectually and spiritually – over the past 4 years. At the same time, many of the same questions, concerns, and struggles I began with with are still very much with me.
Well, enough about me for the time being; regular posting will resume soon. Thank you for your patience and continued readership. Please feel free to submit interesting items (links, news stories, even original essays) to me via e-mail: eirenikonblog (at) me (dot) com.
A blessed Hypapante/Candlemass to all!

You are not alone brother. These are changing and at times confusing times. I often think GOD could have made this church thing a lot easier.
