Do all things without murmurings and disputings: That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; Holding forth the word of life.
Philippians 2:14-16a | KJV
There are many beautiful Churches like the one pictured above in Armenia, the first nation to take up Christianity as its official religion around 300 AD. Armenians were among the first Christians in around 100 AD and have fought long and hard against multiple Muslim invasions for hundreds of years to keep their culture and traditions alive. They still have a militarized border with Azerbaijan to this day and travel to the border region is not advised. They are an interesting people with a unique alphabet and language that is without genders, good traditions around bread making (Lavash) and above all have, for the most part, kept their faith.
