~ Constantine is an international speaker and retreat master for all Orthodox jurisdictions in the United States and abroad. He holds Masters (with honors) in Dogmatic Theology from the University of Thessalonica. He has published a number of pamphlets and books. His most recent publications include: In Search of the Truth (partnering with St. Anthony"s Monastery in AZ), Volumes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, of On the Book of the Revelation by Archimandrite Athanasios Mitilinaios (fZoe Press), My Exodus from Roman Catholicism by Bishop of Nanzianzus Paul De Ballester and Tears of Repentance by Athanasios Katigkas. Mr. Constantine Zalalas was born on January 30, 1956, on the island of Kos in Greece and while in his early teens, immigrated to the United States with his family. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology at Millersville University of Pennsylvania in 1978. Mr. Zalalas is currently a member and a pastoral assistant of St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, where he resides with his family. In 1988, while on pilgrimage to the holy places of Greece, he met Archimandrite Athanasios Mitilinaios, the great elder, teacher and interpreter of the Holy Scriptures. Soon, with the blessing of the Elder, by God's grace, Constantine began translating and presenting the homilies of the elder. Today, over 200 one hour long teachings have been translated and are available on several web sites (www.saintnicodemos.com, www.pantocrator.gr ) and on the KZbin channel “Nicodemos Hagiorite.”

Now I recognize that voice!!!

[@sharpfamily4938]

Excellent. Please talk to Father Kosmas (Priest Monk) from Australia responsible for Orthodox Talks. Edit: Father Spyridon Bailey is another excellent Priest and Author of several great books from the UK. He also has a thriving KZbin channel.

[@Ioannikios174]

Second that. Absolutely would love it if he came to America to give a talk.

[@sharpfamily4938]

@@Ioannikios174 Yes, even via video link. His talks are so helpful.

[@ephraimtheendtimessojourner]

Third this!

[@nonymous1852]

Definitely. Fr. Kosmas is great!

[@innocente7795]

I wish his talks (Orthodox Talks) would end up on Spotify also. Father Kosmas is great from the few I’ve heard. And no question that Fr. Spyridon is terrific. I’m currently reading his latest book “In search of Holy Russia”. So good

[@CJohn33]

One of the most knowledgeable people on the Orthodox faith in our present time.

[@Theoretically-ko6lr]

I can not get enough of this person literally..my soul finds so much peace listening to his talks ❤

[@CJohn33]

He owes you no explanation for anything. Nice fake account.....just joined TODAY to slander someone. Shameful.

[@CJohn33]

Whatever, It is you that obviously does not know the meaning. Like I said you are just a shill account. Whoever is without sin let him cast the first stone. Take the plank out of your own eye. Why don't you send constantine a private message. Instead, you do it on a public comment. That is the slander and you know it.

[@CJohn33]

@user-ss3vh3my7f Antoni, I think you need to do some deep self-reflection. I wonder how old you are that you know it all already. So you know better than the Holy Abbess Olympiada of Holy protection. And Contantine Zalalas has being preaching against ecumenism for a very long time so you are very confused. It is time to worry about your own soul and your own salvation and just pray for others instead of trying to correct them.

[@keithqueen352]

He visited our church last November and he is coming back this November, thank the Lord.

[@vanessac.7040]

Glory to God for our dear brother in Christ Constantine Zalalas. God knows how essential he has been to my walk in strengthening my faith. Glory to God that he has placed it in his heart to translate so much edifying work for us non Greek speakers. May God continue to strengthen him in the good work He has begun in Constantine. Glory to God! ☦️💕

[@nonymous1852]

His book on Homilies on Apocalypse are amazing.

[@Orthodoxi]

21:21 ....the new ark. Glory to thee O God! Glory to thee!

[@outlawgordee]

I have loved listening to his lectures on the Nicodemos page, for several years now. What a joy to finally see him, and learn more about his personal journey. I live in Lancaster PA, about 15 minutes from Millersville University. Incredible to know that he has crossed some of the same paths, that I have.

[@hokulani8]

I am so excited for this interview! I just recently found him on the Nicodemos Hagiorite channel a couple months back and listen all the time now, there is so much great content there in addition to Orthodox Ethos. Thank you Fr Peter/Uncut Mountain for all the content you are providing us from the conference. We are so blessed.🙏🏼❤

[@Theoretically-ko6lr]

Same 😂 he is amazing!!!

[@georgiadim5333]

Father Peter Heers there is so much ignorance amongst us Orthodox regarding the coming of Antichrist and the steps that are being taken to prepare for his coming/appearance! We beseech you Father Peter to follow in the fearless sacrificial footsteps of the late blessed father Athanasios Mytilineos and (with our Lord's help) focus and do everything in your power to awaken God's flock to be vigilant and spiritually prepared so as to reject the deceiver!

[@orthodox1717]

Thank God for the both of you! ☦️ Please pray to God for us, Elder Athanasios Mitilinaios!

[@innocente7795]

So nice to be able to put a face with the voice I’ve listened to so much. What a wonderful Christian man. I’m currently listening to his (Elder Athanasios) homilies on book of James. Such a blessing. I’ve also got all five written volumes on Revelation but haven’t started yet. But after hearing him speak of the homilies on Revelation as a catechism I’m eager to dive in soon. Holy Elder Athanasios intercede on my behalf. Save help and have mercy on Thy servant Constantine O Christ our God.

[@abrahamkassis3138]

These interviews are amazing! I love seeing all these amazing men of Orthodoxy together!☦️💪🥰

[@abrahamkassis3138]

@user-ss3vh3my7f Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

Thank God for Elder Athanasios Mitilinaios, May our Lord rest his soul 🙏☦️

[@gorantrajanovski4752]

I'm happy on the visit to the mr Constantine Zalalas on The Orthodox Ethos, through him I found out your site The Orthodox Ethos father Peter,...by God's providence i ran into publication Pantocrator and to this day I listen and read the books from the blessed one Archimandrite Athanasios Mitilinaios,. and for mr Constantine Zalalas one sister in Christ says; even though I don't know him, I feel him as a birth father... stay healthy alive and any kind of good...

I need more info about him. Interesting man. But i never heard about him in the Eastern Europe . Many thks father Peter. God help you in every good deed. Amen

[@staytriggeredsnowflake]

These last two interviews have been really amazing.

[@theresamason5506]

Very interesting and uplifting. Mr. Zalalas is an excellent instructor.

[@Kaiser282]

I've yet to read revelations since I haven't read the Bible yet nor have I been Orthodox for very long. A lot of people talk about it and it always makes me a little anxious to read it.

[@mrsnkg7904]

Orthodox Ethos has an Excellent series on Revelation based on translations of Elder Athanasios. It's on their playlist. Lord Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on me a. 💖🙏🇦🇺

[@olerocker3470]

Thank you, Fr. Peter. I have listened to a few of his lectures. It's good to put a face to the voice!

[@Forbidden_Word]

Hello, personal question. Would the preservation of an ethnic group by means of isolationism and deportation be condemable in anyway by the Church?

[@vickikyvrikosaios7300]

Would the “welcoming” nation that housed the ethnic group you’re referring to when these people first arrived in the host country truly enabling and welcoming? No, listen to their stories and walk in their shoes before condemning. Every ethnic group bands together because their they find support and truth be told it’s outsiders who mostly have a negative perception and therefore draw negative experiences to validate their impressions. Be open, be good and turn the other cheek until! If you’re trying to analyze and discount you’re not living Christ. As Christians we are told three will undoubtedly be struggles and we are to expect this.
