Join Fr. Peter Heers as he explores and presents the distinguishing characteristic of being a Christian: The Orthodox Ethos. You will be (re)introduced to Christ, the Incarnate and Diachronic Presence of God, in the lives of those who have been purified, illumined and glorified by Him. You will see the human person and the world anew, in the Light of the Resurrected and Ascended God-man as expressed by those “made gods by His Grace” (St. Athanasius the Great) in every age. You will be given great hope and a new perspective on life and death, history and eternity, and the very purpose of your existence. Fr. Peter is an Orthodox Christian priest, professor, author, speaker, translator and publisher.
