Orthodox Survival Courses

[Xenophon]

I'm listening to Fr. Peter Heers right now and his rendition of the course is very worthwhile so far. Unfortunately, you've got to pay for it.

I also recommend Fr. Steven Allen's rendition of the course, which is also very worthwhile and is free (although I recommend donating.) I hope to re-listen to it all over again soon.

Orthodox Survival Course

Of course, I always recommend Fr. Seraphim Rose's Survival Course, which inspired both of the above. This can be found online easily in .pdf or .doc form. (I can hook anyone up with a copy, if you PM me.)

Fantastic post. Thank you.

I've been listening to Fr. Peter’s Survival Course and it's on point. Except for his extreme position on re-baptism due to my being chrismated into the Church (that may be my pride speaking though, lol). This sparked questions on my side that will be on another thread.

Didn’t know about Fr. Steven Allen’s rendition. Will listen!

haven't yet, but I'd like to.

Someone else read it to me on YouTube. I think it was the channel "Orthodox Reactionary" who has that series.

I'd strongly recommend against it, frankly. Almost all of it is quite debatable rather than Orthodox doctrine, it goes into very questionable historiography (including frankly odd speculation around hte Protocols of the Elders of Zion), and endorses a conspiratorial, persecuted mindset.

No, it doesn't. We've discussed this before, or rather I answered you in regard to this before, on another thread. These claims of yours require evidence and show that you've not read it.

What does any of this have to do with the topic, though?

Yes it does and your answer wasn't sufficient.

I can tell that you haven't listened to it.

I have been tuning into Fr. Peter Heers' course and I love it! I appreciate that the Patreon membership offers the same benefits for all Patrons, beginning at just $3/month.
It definitely veers off course from Father Seraphim's actual course, but I think the spirit is the same. It's nice to have some sense of fellowship with everyone who is watching and hear so many questions answered.

Okay thanks for your input. You're right, I've read parts and accordingly decided it's not something people should pay attention to. There isn't anything from his oeuvre I've read that I would recommend, frankly.

For those in the course:
What is your username if you are participating in the chat? Mine is Heather and my symbol is a blue photo with light, you can't really see an image. On YouTube, my name is "HH" with a similar picture.

I haven't participated in the chat and have been watching lectures and Q&A after they are finished the following day/s.

I was on for a bit with the one last night, but it goes on way past my bedtime. Just too late in the evening to be there live.

I have recently joined and am trying to catch up. Not been on chat yet. I nearly gave up on Orthodoxy due to finding my local church is ecumenist and not having a good experience with the priest (s) but perhaps we are going to have to survive alone anyway.

 

[Platina]

Fr. Peter started his course while I was on vacation - how dare he?! But I hope to catch up and check out the next sessions.

You don't like it?
I wasn't particularly interested in it before, but if you don't recommend it then I'm definitely going to give it serious consideration.
Thank you for the heads up.
