Download or read book Facing the World written by Anastasios (Archbishop of Tirana and all Albania) and published by World Council of Churches. This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The process of globalization evokes either euphoria or alarm. Some view it as an unmistakable sign of progress, while others see it as a threat. Nevertheless, the accelerated development of economic, scientific, political and social links among all the peoples of the world has turned our planet into a megalopolis replete with slums. In this work, Archbishop Anastasios presents his conviction that the ecumenical vision of the Orthodox Church is the "best response" to the growing global condition. In the Orthodox tradition, everything is understood within a universal context, from the creation of the world to the vision of the new heaven and new earth. Human enterprise as a whole and the salvation of the entire world are seen as the basic themes of Holy Scripture. In this work, Archbishop Anastasios discusses Orthodox perspectives on human rights, the dialogue with Islam, and the relationship between culture and the gospel, and provides an analysis of world religions. His words invite us to broaden our field of vision to encompass the whole earth.

Book Synopsis Theology and Philosophy in Eastern Orthodoxy by : Christoph Schneider
Download or read book Theology and Philosophy in Eastern Orthodoxy written by Christoph Schneider and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-10-25 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even in the twenty-first century, critical and creative engagement with modern and postmodern philosophy is still a rarity in Orthodox circles. This collection of essays makes a contribution to overcoming this deficit. Eight scholars from six different countries, working on the intersection between Orthodox thought and philosophy, present their research in short and accessible essays. The range of topics spans from political philosophy to phenomenology, metaphysics, philosophy of self, logic, ethics, and philosophy of language. This book does not promote one particular approach to the relationship between Orthodox theology and philosophy. Yet all authors demonstrate that Orthodox scholarship is not confined to historical research about the Byzantine era, but that it can contribute to, and enrich, contemporary intellectual debates.

Book Synopsis The Orthodox Reality by : Vigen Guroian
Download or read book The Orthodox Reality written by Vigen Guroian and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about the struggle of Orthodox Christianity to establish a clear identity and mission within modernity--Western modernity in particular. As such, it offers penetrating insight into the heart and soul of Orthodoxy. Yet it also lends unusual, unexpected insight into the struggle of all the churches to engage modernity with conviction and integrity. Written by one of the leading voices of contemporary Orthodox theology, The Orthodox Reality is a treasury of the Orthodox response to the challenges of Western culture in order to answer secularism, act ecumenically, and articulate an ethics of the family that is both faithful to tradition and relevant to our day. The author honestly addresses Orthodoxy's strengths and shortcomings as he introduces readers to Orthodoxy as a living presence in the modern world.
Download or read book Orthodoxy written by G. K. Chesterton and published by Phoemixx Classics Ebooks. This book was released on 2021-09-26 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Orthodoxy G. K. Chesterton - Orthodoxy (1908) is a book by G. K. Chesterton that has become a classic of Christian apologetics. Chesterton considered this book a companion to his other work, Heretics. In the book's preface Chesterton states the purpose is to "attempt an explanation, not of whether the Christian faith can be believed, but of how he personally has come to believe it." In it, Chesterton presents an original view of Christian religion. He sees it as the answer to natural human needs, the "answer to a riddle" in his own words, and not simply as an arbitrary truth received from somewhere outside the boundaries of human experience.
Book Synopsis The Light of the World by : Serge S. Verhovskoy
Download or read book The Light of the World written by Serge S. Verhovskoy and published by RSM Press. This book was released on 1982 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The five essays in this book offer the reader a concise, theological view of the fundamental doctrines of the Orthodox Church. Indeed are three pieces devoted to the general themes of "Orthodoxy," "Christ" and "Christianity," and two more detailed studies on catholicity and Chalcedonian theology. All are sufficiently broad to be used by the average layman, yet penetrating enough to enrich the clergyman or scholar. And all have but one simple purpose: to present the teachings of the Church, not only as an object of investigation, but as a reality to be entered into, an invitation to come and be with Christ--the Light of the world. The author of these essays is Professor Emeritus of Dogmatic, Moral and Comparative Theology at St. Vladimer's Seminary--from back cover.

Book Synopsis Orthodox Christian Perspectives on War by : Perry T. Hamalis
Download or read book Orthodox Christian Perspectives on War written by Perry T. Hamalis and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many regions of the world whose histories include war and violent conflict have or once had strong ties to Orthodox Christianity. Yet policy makers, religious leaders, and scholars often neglect Orthodoxy’s resources when they reflect on the challenges of war. Through essays written by prominent Orthodox scholars in the fields of biblical studies, church history, Byzantine studies, theology, patristics, political science, ethics, and biology, Orthodox Christian Perspectives on War presents and examines the Orthodox tradition’s nuanced and unique insights on the meaning and challenges of war with an eye toward their contemporary relevance. This volume is structured in three parts: “Confronting the Present Day Reality,” “Reengaging Orthodoxy’s Tradition,” and “Constructive Directions in Orthodox Theology and Ethics.” Each exemplifies the value of interdisciplinary reflection on “war” and the potential for the Eastern Orthodox tradition to enhance ecumenical and interfaith discussions surrounding war in both domestic and international contexts. The contributors do not advance a single account of “the meaning of war” or a comprehensive and normative stance purporting to be “the Orthodox Christian teaching on war.” Instead, this collection presents the breadth and depth of Orthodox Christian thought in a way that engages Orthodox and non-Orthodox readers alike. In addition to offering fresh resources for all people of good will to understand, prevent, and respond faithfully to war, this book will appeal to Christian theologians who specialize in ethics, to libraries of academic institutions, and to scholars of war/peace studies, international relations, and Orthodox thought. Contributors: Peter C. Bouteneff, George Demacopoulos, John Fotopoulos, Brandon Gallaher, Perry T. Hamalis, Valerie A. Karras, Alexandros K. Kyrou, Aristotle Papanikolaou, Elizabeth H. Prodromou, Nicolae Roddy, James C. Skedros, Andrew Walsh, and Gayle E. Woloschak.
