“I just continue to learn every day that there's so much I don't know. And, you know, I appreciate that approach by the Orthodox Church as well. And while they do have clear answers, matter-of-fact answers that are rooted in, you know, 2,000 years of tried and true information, like we said, they're so humble.”
