Distance Learning Center of the St. Tikhon’s Orthodox Humanitarian University in the City of Ekaterinburg at the End of 20th - Early 21st Century and Its Role in the Formation of Theological Education in the Urals
In Ekaterinburg, in the period from 1995 to 2006, there was a Distance Learning Center of the Orthodox St. Tikhon Theological Institute, which played a significant role in the church revival and the formation of the system of theological education and catechesis in the region. In fact, during the existence of this Distance Learning Center, there was no other opportunity for the laity to receive a good systemic theological education in Ekaterinburg. The history of the Center is being reconstructed through the publications and interviews with a number of individuals.
