Welcome to “Wonder” a publication of the Department of Youth, Young Adult, and Campus Ministries of the Orthodox Church in America. “Wonder” is published monthly on a particular theme and presents four or five articles from a variety of perspectives. This blog is particularly geared for young adults and college students, and those who minister to them. It is our hope that this blog will help provide a “good defense” for our faith, hope and love. These articles are published to spur discussion, both online and off, and provide material for those engaged in campus and young adult ministry. For the latest updates, subscribe for free in the box at the right of this page. We are also starting to offer certain past articles in downloadable .pdf format with accompanying discussion questions. As always, all questions and concerns can be directed to wonder@oca.org.
