Show Notes

David Erhan joins us this week to discuss some of the most important theological topics in Christianity. We are on this earth for theosis. David gets into what that is, the scriptural proof regarding theosis, and why other Christianities outside of Orthodoxy don't always emphasize it. We discuss the ever-so-important essence/energies distinction, and we relate much of these things to the Orthodox Saints. Many outside of Orthodoxy are troubled when they hear of "praying to Saints". Why do we do that, and what does it mean?
