I moved away for work opportunities, but I left my heart in Sts. Peter and Paul Antiochian Orthodox Church in SLC, UT. Fr. Paul is a master teacher and Shepard for Christ.
I was a Protestant layman for 24 years and became Orthodox July 2023. I’ve been doing evangelism for 20 years as a Protestant, now I’m doing it for Christ as an Orthodox
Thank you Father Paul, I'm a catechumen from down south in Louisiana and I feel like I am being called to spread my faith, especially in my local area.
This is a really great talk, and I look forward to listening to the next ones. Will there also be a talk about how to talk with Jews about Christ? Perhaps that can be added to Talk 7? I have Jewish relatives, and I know I'm not the only one who could benefit from such a talk.
For your future presentations, you listed 'Talking With...' every major religion...except Jews. Why can't you tell us how to talk to Jews about Christ?
You also missed New Agers and Occultists. If you really needed to cut down on time, I would roll them into the talk on Hindus and Buddhists and put Jews and Muslims into the same talk. Though really they deserve their own talks. Seraphim Hamilton has a paid course coming up on how to talk to Jews about Christ. He is also very well-read on Mormonism. He might be worh contacting. Orthodox Shahada channel has good resources on talking with Muslims.
The Antiochians append the words, “one God” at the end of the invocation of the Holy Trinity. My opinion is this is not only not necessary, but is on the border of an imbalanced view of the Trinity. It is what the Western church did in the Creed, where they unnecessarily appended “and the Son” regarding the procession of the Holy Spirit. What started as a “clarification” (according to the RC’s) to help pagans “understand,” contributed to a now lengthy separation. The Orthodox Church has worshipped without the appendage (“one God”) for centuries when invocating the Holy Trinity. I would caution against this addition. Excellent lecture, however!

I feel a calling to evangelism, and I'm not even a catechumen.
Thanks so much, Father Paul. Love this. Can't wait for the next one! ☦️💜
Praise Jesus, what a treasure! Brilliant advice. Sharing this video with our Orthodox Parish!
Excellent and much needed topic to be talked about! Thanks for it and Glory to God for everything! I will for sure watch the whole serie
Been loving the RUclips lectures! Keep it up Fr Paul!
Excellent video Father... thank you

Praise God! Thank you!
44:42 - true love can’t accept brokenness - is there more on this? Like books or blogs or anything?
You mentioned LDS, but not Jehovah Witnesses. Will you discuss them some time? Jehovah Witnesses are huge in the South.
where does your parish reside?
salt lake city
Based.

Its litterally the 1st words of the Creed "I believe in One God.."
