In this class, Anthony explores 2 Corinthians 3 as a roadmap from spiritual slavery to divine liberty, showing how the ancient Christian path of ascesis leads to true freedom. Through five key illuminations—liberation from the passions, participation in God’s uncreated Energies, the transformative role of ascetic struggle, the liturgical and sacramental life, and the eschatological promise—we discover that authentic freedom is not self-assertion, but self-emptying union with Christ.
