      I've been looking for some interior views. There are a few here of the furnishings and priest. http://www.galenfrysinger.com/lalibela_ethiopia.htm

      Impressive stuff.
      “The mystery of the incarnation of the Lord is the key to all the arcane symbolism and typology in the Scriptures, and in addition gives us knowledge of created things, both visible and intelligible. He who apprehends the mystery of the cross and the burial apprehends the inward [principles] of created things, while he who is initiated into the inexpressible power of the resurrection apprehends the purpose for which God first established everything.” -St. Maximus the Confessor

      "I would join countless numbers of evangelical Protestants and say I have come to know Christ with fulfilling and life-changing effects and daily witness His grace and leadership in my life. But just because God in His grace and mercy has met us where we are and adapted Himself to our unique cultural and religious circumstances in no way means He has abandoned His original plan. God does not contradict Himself. Truth is intolerant, and truth is found in the Church’s living and Holy Tradition. It is my growing conviction that only a strong living Tradition can protect us from the corrosive and destructive forces of modern life, the insidious and deceptive effects of modern pluralism, and the disheartening and confusing proliferation of religious opinions...What are we to do with this "cloud of witnesses," this Holy Tradition through which they live and speak with such clarity and certitude? Well, for me there seems to be only one logical response. I must turn to the Church and its sacred Tradition; I must listen humbly and be instructed. I cannot let God’s marvelous blessings of the past blind me to what I have missed or deter me from that to which He would lead me still. I must return home to Orthodoxy." Rev. Dorraine S. Snogren, The Road That Leads Home

      “….whenever I discern a sounder opinion in any matter whatsoever, I gladly and humbly abandon the earlier one. For I know that those things I have learned are but the least in comparison with what I do not know.” John Hus

      "Fear is nothing more than a love of self" John Knox

      "I continue to find Paul totally stimulating, exciting and fascinating, which is more than I can say for any creed or confessional formula." - NT Wright

      "In essentials unity, in non-essentials liberty, in all things charity" - Rupertus Meldenius

      "True theology resolutely refuses to attempt to bring its subject matter into conformity with the categories, though-forms, concepts and needs which all human though always brings with it."
      Helmut Gollwitzer (on Karl Barth)

      On Liberalism – "A God without wrath brought men without sin into a kingdom without judgement through the ministration of a Christ without a Cross" – H Richard Niebur
