“From Gospel to Creed”

Have you been longing to take a course at St Vladimir’s Seminary, but not been in a position to be a full-time, on-campus seminarian? Are you an SVS alumnus/a yearning to return to your alma mater to see and hear what current professors are teaching? Do you simply want the chance to take a refreshing drink from the deep wellsprings of Orthodox Christian theology?

June 2010 will be the opportune time for you to do so! In a new summertime venture, the seminary will be offering an intensive weeklong academic course for the public, with an option for academic credit.

Archpriest John Behr, our renowned professor of Patristics and dean of St Vladimir’s Seminary, will lead a rigorous and rewarding academic class titled “From Gospel to Creed.” The course will examine key Christian figures and explore the historical and thematic paths that led to the formulation and promulgation of the Creed of Nicaea.

“I’m thrilled to offer a course to the general public this summer,” said Fr John. “And, I’m always eager to share what so energizes me—learning about Christ and the origins of my church, and all the providential quirks of history that make that study so fascinating, enduring, and decidedly life-changing.”
