Are We Experiencing a Triumph of Orthodoxy?

On Sunday, March 9, I was the speaker for the Sunday of Orthodoxy Vespers at St. Basil Antiochian Orthodox Church in Hampton, Virginia, as the guest of the Hampton Roads Orthodox Clergy Brotherhood. This video is the talk that I gave that night. In this video, I talk about the ongoing Orthodox convert surge and what it actually means for our parish communities.
