Introduction
Saint Vladimir's embraces the challenge of serving the Church and the needs of Orthodox Christians in the 21st Century. Time brings change but the Truth of the Gospel is eternally unchanging; adjustments must be made to engage a rapidly changing world, but without sacrificing that which is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
St Vladimir's Theological Quarterly
St. Vladimir's Theological Quarterly (SVTQ)—in continuous publication for more than seventy years—has remained faithful to the principles outlined in its very first issue (in 1952) by founder Fr. Georges Florovsky: fidelity to the truth and beauty of our tradition, coupled with the responsibility to speak to the world in which we live.
