The Lectures of Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick
The Orthodox Way of Life and the Western Mindset
Often thoroughly secular and inclined to a vague spirituality that resembles Deism, the average western person presents a unique challenge for Orthodox evangelism. In this talk, Fr. Andrew offers some ideas for introducing the Faith to skeptical western minds. The talk was given on October 21, 2015, at the Clergy Conference of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the United States of America in South Bound Brook, New Jersey.
