The Orthodox Path to Becoming Like God

About this sermon

What is virtue according to the Orthodox Church—and how is it radically different from secular morality? In this eye-opening talk, we explore how virtue is not merely self-improvement or moral behavior, but participation in the divine energies of God. Drawing on the teachings of Saints like Gregory Palamas and Maximus the Confessor, we uncover how true virtue is the path to theosis—becoming gods by grace.
