In this third episode of “The Black American Orthodox Experience” (season 2), a collaboration of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America and the Orthodox Christian Network, Rev. Samuel Davis discusses with Rev. Micah Breland, a final-year seminarian at Saint Tikhon’s Orthodox Theological Seminary. Rev. Breland articulates his experiences in ministering to communities with limited exposure to Orthodox Christianity, underscores the significance of bolstering the development of young seminarians, and emphasizes the necessity of outreach initiatives that consider both material needs and the communal traumas within these communities.
The Black American Orthodox Experience is a program focused on Orthodox missions in America—insights, challenges, and how we can reach (and are reaching) members of Black, Indigenous, and other communities with the Church of Jesus Christ. Our goal is to feature honest and informative conversations about what the Great Commission looks like in modern America within a historical and cultural context.
