Description

Fr. Peter Heers speaks to ROCOR Youth in Australia (December 2023).QUESTION & ANSWER SESSION:(52:39): How can you find a balance between wanting to go with friends, or watching a TV show, and doing all these things in life that take up so much of our time, versus praying, reading spiritual texts, going to additional Church services? What’s the point of doing these secular activities when I could be growing closer to God instead?(58:50): If you were to have an extremely vivid spiritual dream, should you tell someone about it, or be concerned about it, or brush it off? (1:02:58): I don’t want to fall into the temptation of being externally “religious”, how do I develop genuine love for Christ?(1:09:59): Do you find that young Christians rely solely on social media for information and theology, without looking for a spiritual father and a real-life community?(1:13:02): I have family and friends that are of other religions and they tell me that Orthodoxy is all the same to them, what should my response be?(1:17:21): Going back to the dream question, multiple priests say if the sign of the cross is in the dream, that means that it’s a message from God because it’s a sign of the cross.(1:18:04): How do you respond to people that ask questions about the faith, and you’re not sure how to answer them?Join our LIVE Q&A with Fr.

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.
