Fr. Michael has first hand knowledge of the culture of native Alaska and can speak in many of their languages.  He is a very popular speaker and a superb storyteller.  This series gives the history of Alaska over the last 250 years and woven through each message is the Orthodox World View which shows the power of the gospel of Christ in the lives of the natives and those who brought the message.  These tapes on Alaska are excellent.  It's a story about people and how they acted against incredible forces to bring the Church to Alaska.  And the story about a possible new saint is very touching.

This series of talks is also more than a story about Alaska.  Here is a model for evangelizing any culture, including our own today.  The Orthodox Model for evangelizing is very different than that of the Protestant and Roman missionaries.  This is a real treasure to be mined.

Fr. Michael is much in demand as a "counselor" with the natives of Alaska and is called on often by the State of Alaska and the Federal government to help resolve local disputes in schools.  Fr. Michael's knowledge of the Orthodox faith and the Native culture and history make this an amazing set of tapes.
