# George Tserodze

> Georgian Orthodox archpriest, theologian and author. Essays, books, research and courses on personhood, freedom, communion, death and resurrection in dialogue with John Zizioulas and contemporary philosophy.

The public project is titled The Future as the Source of Being. Georgian and English pages use ?lang=ka and ?lang=en. Individual essays may be available in only one language. Dates show the verified precision available: a year does not imply a known month or day. The Yalom companion is an AI conversation tool, not the author or a healthcare provider.
