Church in the Making

by Nikolaos Loudovikos, Norman Russell (Translator)

Overview

Over the past fifty years, Orthodox theologies of ecclesiology have been revoling around competing schools of ecclesiology—one "universal," the other "eucharistic." Father Loudovikos, in this masterful interconnected series of studies, moves beyond this dialectic by exploring the very mode of the Church's existence.

In the end, it is the profound theological insights of St Maximus the Confessor that propel Father Loudovikos beyond the familiar borders of ecclesiology and into a new way of understanding the Church's self that is indissolubly linked to the human person and his participation in the divine Love that is God.
