“Why does God impose His commandments upon us?” asks the young student. In his recent (May 19, 2018) commencement address at St Vladimir’s Orthodox Theological Seminary, philosopher (and Another City Associate Editor) David Bradshaw offers future Orthodox priests tools to overcome the doubts and objections that they will encounter from their parishioners, especially the young who feel that God’s commandments are arbitrary and onerous.

Eliciting and encouraging the questioning process, the new priest can show the questioner, who is often stranded in a world of disrupted families and digital distractions, the divine beauty they already seek within the liturgies of the Church, in the lives of its saints, in the ascetic life that leads to holiness, and in the forgiveness they are invited extend in their own lives.
