This is the fourth episode from my interview with Orthodox pastor, theologian, professor, Dean Emeritus of St. Vladimir’s Seminary, podcaster, author, and Protopresbyter, Fr. Thomas Hopko of blessed memory.
Fr. Thomas is one of the most beloved figures in Orthodoxy in America in the past century and the Church in this country mourned his untimely repose on March 18, 2015.
I was blessed with the opportunity to meet Fr. Thomas on a number of occasions, one of which was in June of 2010, when he graciously agreed to sit down with me for this interview.
In this episode, Fr. Thomas discusses what Orthodox Christianity has to offer the modern world.

Very strong man. He talks truth straight from the gut; can we say that about an orthodox man? In my opinion, yes!
I'm really enjoying these. Thank you so much for sharing.
Blessed memory!
I love Fr. Tom.
Having beheld the Resurrection of Christ, let us worship, the holy Lord Jesus, the only Sinless One! We venerate Thy Cross, O Christ, and Thy Holy Resurrection we praise and glorify; for Thou art our God, and we know no other than Thee; we call on Thy name. Come, all you faithful, let us venerate Christ’s Holy Resurrection! *For, behold, through the Cross joy has come into all the world*. Let us ever bless the Lord, praising His Resurrection. By enduring the Cross for us, He destroyed death by death!
this resurrectional hymn is just so powerful. Fr. Tom nails it again.
Once again, thank you for the blessing of introducing us to Fr. Tom Hopko.
This guy is great!
Thank you for sharing Fr. Thomas. What a comfort, to hear his eloquence. Thank you.
What a video for these times. Thank you. May Fr. Tom pray for our mess.
Beautiful. Just. Beautiful.
Thank you so much on this video! 💙
I enjoy these — however, I was wondering if you'd be able to post these segments without the intro? It'd be better for sharing. thanks!
Heard Evangelicals say Orthodoxy has no Gospel. Wow. All I heard here was the Evangel.
