Fr. John Whiteford joins me to discuss the theology of baptism and the Orthodox approach to receiving newcomers to Orthodoxy.
We shall address this topic not by simply repeating and quoting the Saints, but by synthesizing their perspectives and the doctrinal paradigm of receiving converts as established in the Council of Trullo and in the canons of Saints such as St. Basil the Great.
