Some, like the Orthodox, have a very high value for tradition, while others, like the churches I grew up in, think it's nothing but stagnation and gets in the way of a personal relationship with Jesus. In my own life, I've been on a bit of a journey learning about the Christian tradition and trying to understand how I ought to relate to it. In this video, Fr. John Baker of Christ the Savior Orthodox Church shares an Orthodox perspective on the importance of tradition.

About me:
Hey! My name is Austin, and I'm a 21 year old guy with a passion for people. I believe the good news is that God is better than we could've ever hoped, and I love sharing this message of grace and love with anyone that will listen. I'm the former Digital Marketing and Video Production Coordinator at a large, evangelical church in Frederick, MD, and I'm currently a student at Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, IL. When I'm not writing papers or making YouTube videos, I do freelance work as a Wedding Photographer/Videographer and social media consultant. On any given day you can find me with my nose in a book or a guitar in my hands. Want to get to know me more? Follow me and say hi on Instagram at: @austin.suggs
