Hall of Men Presents St. Ambrose of Milan on Dec. 8

The Hall of Men will gather Thursday evening on the commemoration of the Forefeast of the Conception by St Anna of the Most Holy Theotokos, Anno Domini 2022, December 8 for our last topic of 2022.


Derek Brown will present on St. Ambrose of Milan.


St. Ambrose, (339-397) the bishop of Milan, later canonized as a saint in the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Church, and deemed a "Doctor of the Church," is noteworthy not only for his for his contributions to theology, liturgy, and pastoral theology, but also that he was not yet a baptized Christian when we was acclaimed bishop. The crowds were soon justified in their choice, as Ambrose was an exemplary model of someone sanctifying their secular talents, education, and experience for use in ministry. 


If you haven’t seen a Catholic listen to the life story of John Wesley; if you haven’t watched a Protestant learn about Evagrius of Pontus; and if you haven’t seen Orthodox, Catholic, and Protestant men sit around a table together and talk theology until midnight . . . then you need to come to the Hall of Men.
