About this episode

Dr. Greg Gifford discusses the challenges of biblical authority within Eastern Orthodoxy compared to Protestantism.

Eastern Orthodoxy offers something many young Christians are craving: reverence, history, theological depth, and a church that feels anchored to the ancient faith. But Dr. Greg Gifford argues that beneath that appeal lies a crucial question about Scripture, tradition, and the gospel itself. Before you—or someone you care about—trades Protestantism for Orthodoxy, learn why your view of biblical authority determines far more than you may realize.
