Thanks for posting this. Fr. Oleksa has done some basic thinking and work around "culture" and world view. It's a basic piece of the puzzle on what it means to *be* Christian in modern secular America, though Fr. Michael I don't believe takes it to where it needs to go.
ReplyDeleteIn this video, Fr. Michael mentions one of Schmemann's failure paths of how to *be* Orthodox in America (i.e. the tendency to an idealization of a particular past). I was hoping Fr. Michael would address the other failure path, the one where an individual/parish/jurisdiction/church compromises with the (in our case secular) culture, and ends up being indistinguishable from it except on the surface.
