B11. Fr Seraphim Rose: The Future of Russia and the End of the Age (1981)

34 minutes

On September 2, 1982, Hieromonk Seraphim (Rose) of blessed memory reposed in the Lord after years of monastic labors in the St. Herman of Alaska Monastery, Platina, California, which he co-founded. His legacy lives on around the world, and especially in Russia, a country about which he often wrote. The experience of Orthodox believers in Russia was a major theme in Fr. Seraphim's lectures and writings, and he often used them to illustrate important points concerning contemporary Orthodox life. Although the following lecture was presented in 1981, before the fall of communism in Russia and the collapse of the Soviet Union—events essentially described in the prophecies Fr. Seraphim cites - and much else has happened which Fr. Seraphim did not live to see, the message of his lecture continues to be relevant.
