Synopsis

This Orthodox Christian Catechism shows the enquirer in a concise and appealing manner how the Faith is more than just a collection of doctrines – it is an entire worldview and way of life. It provides the reader with the Orthodox perspective on crucial themes, including man’s place in Creation, the mystery of the Incarnation, and the Church’s role in the order of salvation. The book is written with a mind to the inquirer in the modern West.

While it offers the essential foundation for further study and practice, this book will also be of great value to the well-informed reader. It provides a comprehensive exposition of the Royal Path, examining how believers can be tempted to stray to its right or its left.

Furthermore, the book examines the Orthodox Church in relation to other Christian and non-Christian worldviews. It specifically explains what distinguishes Orthodoxy and helps the reader to orient their faith in contrast to the ideas and spiritualities that characterize modern society.

This catechism is based on the teaching the author received at the Holy Monastery of the Paraclete in Oropos, Greece, which was founded by monks from the Holy Mountain of Athos.
