Orthodoxy in Conversation: Orthodox Ecumenical Engagements
A creative set of essays that dares to address many of the critical and controversal issues of theology. Fr. Clapsis has taken seriously the ecumenical commitment of his church, and attempts to do theology in conversation with other Christian traditions and theologians. Included are the Orthodox Church's involvement in ecumenism, papal primacy, contextual theology, politics and Christian faith, population, and the environment, violence and what the Spirit says to the churches.
