What happens when a spiritual journey defies expectations and takes an unexpected turn? Our guest shares a deeply personal and transformative account, beginning with a challenge from a pastor that ignited a spiritual hunger in the heart of a predominantly Mormon southern Idaho. From the frustrations of fluctuating church leadership and theology to the inspiring broadcasts of Billy Graham and the thought-provoking "Jesus Christ Superstar" album, discover how our guest found a profound understanding of Jesus' humanity and divinity, eventually solidifying a deep and personal connection with Christ.

Follow along as this journey unfolds at UCLA, where academic pursuits in early Christian and Byzantine art history introduced the rich traditions of the Orthodox Church. Hear about the impactful experiences at Greek Orthodox services and the meaningful shift from evangelical roots to embracing Orthodox liturgical practices. This episode takes you through pivotal moments, including encounters with influential figures like Bishop Peter Gilquist, which ultimately led to seminary and a lifelong commitment to promoting the Orthodox faith. Join us for a compelling narrative of faith, discovery, and spiritual illumination.
