Overview

In the essays offered in this book, Bradley Nassif argues that an evangelical (gospel) vision is embedded in the entire structure of the Church, and that it must be kept clear and central for local parishes to flourish. He also explores the elements of faith that Orthodox and Evangelicals share, without glossing over their differences, thus offering a means of mutual understanding and enrichment. He concludes by documenting the background of an emerging global dialogue between the two traditions.
