Fr. Peter Heers
About this episode

(Lesson 21) — Testament, Law, and Worship

Come and sit at the feet of the professors of the Desert, those initiated into the Mystery. They will guide us through the entirety of the Economy of Salvation, from the pre-existence of the Logos, to His Revelation and Incarnation, and His Elevation and Session at the Right Hand of the Father.

Presenting, examining and explaining the book: Τὸ Μυστήριον τοῦ Χριστοῦ (The Mystery of Christ), written by the Cell of the Resurrection on Mount Athos, this lecture series aims to bring the Athonite catechism to English speakers for the first time.

Join me, Fr. Peter Heers, your translator and guide, on this journey of exploring the breadth, and length, and depth, and height of the love of Christ, which surpasses all understanding, that we might be filled with all the fulness of God.

Thursdays at 5PM Pacific, 8PM Eastern across The Orthodox Ethos platform, including Youtube, Instagram, Crowdcast, Rumble, Facebook, X and orthodoxethos.com, followed by a member's only live Q&A. (The Q&A will take place 10 minutes after the completion of the lesson, and will go live as a separate livestream for members.)

We await you, to become together initiates in The Mystery, the Mystery of Christ.
