The Orthodox Teaching on Contraception

September 25, 2025

In this exclusive interview, Dr. Tikhon Pino introduces his latest book Contraception and the Orthodox Church, published by Patristic Nectar Publications. The book explores 2,000 years of Orthodox teaching on marriage, family life, and the ethical issue of contraception. Dr. Pino discusses the consistent witness of the Church Fathers, the encyclicals of the Church of Greece (1937 & 1978), and the myths surrounding contraception in the Orthodox world.
