Answering Protestant Critiques of Orthodox Christianity with Jim Jatras and Fr John Whiteford

Today, I have Fr. John Whiteford and Jim Jatras back on the show. We are breaking down and answering critiques that were presented by Pastor Joel Webbon, Pastor J. Chase Davis, and others in a podcast from Right Response Ministries called "Why Young Men Are Flocking To Eastern Orthodoxy" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lqNfibn0IM&t=3101s). Right Response Ministries is a Protestant group, and they have several very good podcast episodes; they're definitely not enemies. We disagree on how they present the Orthodox Church, though, and that's why we wanted to make this response to them.
