Show Notes

Vatican II and its implementation is still controversial among Catholics. Today on Crisis Point we're going to consider an Eastern Orthodox perspective to the Council, particularly its ecclesiology.

Guest: Archpriest Peter Heers was raised as the son of an Anglican priest, who, in 1992, together with much of his parish, converted to the Orthodox Church. Then, in 1996 Fr. Heers came to Thessaloniki, Greece, in order to visit Mt. Athos, returning again in 1998 to begin studies at the Theological School of the University of Thessaloniki, where he earned undergraduate, masters and doctoral degrees in Dogmatic Theology. He is the founder and current head of Uncut Mountain Press, the founder and first editor of “Divine Ascent, A Journal of Orthodox Faith,” the host of the online podcast, Postcards from Greece, hosted by Ancient Faith Radio, and a regular speaker to parish groups in the United States and Canada.
