* * * Living Orthodoxy in the Modern World. Orthodox Christianity & Society Translation from English by Doina Rogoti Orthodox Christanity reveals the everlasting truth of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, since the Pentecost to the present and into the future. Orthodoxy is increasingly appreciated by the Christians, for the depth of its spirituality and theology, its commitment to prayer and the beauty of its liturgy. But the Orthodox Church’s reputation of relating to the Tradition often leaves the impression that it carries no message for the contemporary society. This book offers writings of both clergy and lay authors, providing deep and fascinating insights into the role and mission of the Church in today’s world. Whereas prayer and ministration are deemed to be the highest callings for all the faithful, the issues tackled here address a much wider range, including family life and the loss of the dear ones, ecology and consumerism, politics, medical ethics and psychology. The distinguished contributors are Metropolitan Anthony of Sourozh, Bishop Kallistos Ware, Metropolitan John Zizioulas, Metropolitan Athanasius of Herzegovina, Archbishop Anastasios of Albania, Bishop Basil of Sergievo, Prof. H. Tristram Engelhardt jr., Andrew Louth, Gillian Crow, Costa Carras, Andrew Walker and Dr. Jamie Moran. Format: 13x20 cm, 256 p. ISBN: 978-973-136-172-7 “Theological Studies” «« back
