František Trstenský
Bishop of the Spiš Diocese
He is a Professor of Catholic Theology at the Theological Institute of the Catholic University in Spišské Podhradie.
He specialises in biblical studies, a field he pursued during several years of study and residence in Jerusalem. He later served as Vice-Rector of the Catholic University in Ružomberok and as a parish priest in Kežmarok.
He is also the creator of the Kairos podcast, which explores the Bible, faith and the Church.
He sees the Church not as an institutional, bureaucratic organisation with office hours, but as a community. He believes it is essential to stay connected to the realities of everyday life rather than shut oneself off from them.
