Chastity, Purity, Integrity— Orthodox Anthropology and Secular Culture
March 7th-9th, 2019

With Bishop Luke, Rector of Holy Trinity Seminary and Abbot of Holy Trinity Monastery presiding and offering all prayers, and Archpriest Alexander, Dean of Holy Trinity Seminary, serving as master of ceremonies, distinguished Orthodox clergy and scholars from across the country gathered at Holy Trinity Orthodox Seminary from March 7 to March 9.

Hailing from several Orthodox jurisdictions in America and all four major Orthodox seminaries, the speakers offered lectures and discussions on how Orthodox anthropology can and must engage with secular culture in North America to help heal the trail of brokenness left behind as radical modernists, both secular and religious, surge forward with so-called "advances" for individuals and society. Engaging on both theoretical and practical levels, the Jordanville Conference, as it is now known, demonstrated how the problematic presuppositions of modernity have necessarily led to incorrect understandings of human beings, religious communities, and the wider culture, which correspondingly impels its advocates to promote human behaviors that are destructive to mind, body, and soul.

Below is the list of speakers who have authorized the video and audio recordings of their presentations on a special page of the Ancient Faith Radio website: https://www.ancientfaith.com/specials/chastity_purity_integrity. If a recording of a lecture is available, it is linked below.
