When The Greek Orthodox Church was written, approximately 126 million people were a part of the church it describes. In spite of that, leaders of the church felt that they were not understood by their Christian brothers and sisters, and their particular beliefs were not known by the Christian body of believers. There was a common misconception that the Greek Orthodox Church held partly Roman and partly Reformed or Protestant beliefs, rather than viewing the church as having its own distinct views and practices.
Driven by the spirit of communion, the goal of this work was to establish understanding between all Christians, but especially between the Greek Orthodox Church and the Church of England. The text covers the history of the Greek Orthodox Church, the people who are a part of it and the practices they follow, as well as the common faith which this massive church shares with all of Christianity. The Greek Orthodox Church provides a much-needed overview while illuminating the fascinating story behind this significant church.
