Schmemann Speaks
Schmemann Speaks is a podcast featuring the words and wisdom of Fr Alexander Schmemann (1921–1983), from the archives of St Vladimir's Seminary. His words—captured decades ago—are anything but dated. They are further proof that Fr Alexander remains a voice for our time. The podcast is part of St Vladimir's "Year of Schmemann" celebrations, commemorating 100 years since the birth of the Seminary's beloved and renowned former dean and professor.
