I've had little contact with Orthodoxy over the years and, whether we think all the same things or not, learning about it now has been like unwrapping a present I didn't know I had. Thanks to Father Paul and to Saints Peter and Paul Orthodox Church in Salt Lake City, Utah for the hospitality and patience with all my questions!

Greek Orthodoxy has always been a bit of a mystery to me, and I wanted to get a clearer sense of what it's all about so I drove down to the Assumption Cathedral in Denver, Colorado and spent the morning getting answers straight from the source.
Huge thanks to Father Chris Margaritis for taking the time to hang out!
This video literally happened because there are people on the Internet who've decided to support this channel. They, no doubt, don't agree with me about every single thing in the Bible and Christianity, but they overlook that and help make this channel happen anyways and that means a ton to me.
