In the spring of 2025, Fr. Nareg hosted a six-part lecture series titled Pasta with Our Pastor, now available as a podcast. Each episode invites listeners into a thoughtful conversation about identity and well-being, rooted in Christian anthropology and the healing truth that we are beloved children of God. The series explores the emotional journey of growth and restoration, the role of the Holy Spirit in mental health, and the deep connection between anxiety, trust, and faith. Together, we wrestled with real-life challenges—love, marriage, forgiveness, and relationships—always returning to the unwavering anchor of God’s love. The final session calls us to reflect on purpose and calling, encouraging us to reimagine our stories through the lens of grace and embrace the lifelong journey of theosis: becoming more like Christ.
