Why listen

Orthodoxy and Heterodoxy is a structured teaching series from Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick that walks through how Orthodox Christianity differs from Roman Catholicism, Protestant traditions, non-mainstream Christian groups, and non-Christian religions. It feels like an accessible comparative theology course, with each topic broken into short numbered parts rather than casual conversation. Listeners who want a clear Orthodox framework for understanding doctrine, church history, and religious differences will get the most out of it.
