  • The Orthodox Moment: the Holy and Great Council in Crete and Orthodoxy’S Encounter with the West: on Learning to Love the Church
    The Orthodox Moment: The Holy and Great Council in Crete and Orthodoxy’s Encounter with the West: On Learning to Love the Church BRANDON GALLAHER So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love. (1 Cor. 13:13) Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, that he might present the church to himself in splendour, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish. (Eph. 5:25–27) Faith, Hope, Love. One does not normally think of these words when the Holy and Great Council of Crete of 19–26 June 2016 is discussed. For many, the infighting that led up to it was a scandal of the faith that led them to wonder: ‘Where is the Church of the Creed we affirm each Sunday Liturgy?’ Is there no one, united Orthodox Church? Or, are there rather just as a series of fractious inward-looking ethnic enclaves, discrete Eastern Churches? And what of hope? For many centuries, Orthodox Christians have longed to meet together as one church, united and freed from the various tyrannies both external and born of conquest (the Ottomans and the Bolsheviks) to those that arose from soured compromises with autocratic powers (Petrine and now Putinist). And this Council, which had been a Pan-Orthodox initiative for over a century and in active planning for 55: it could not even convene all of its fourteen universally acknowledged churches.

  • L'église Orthodoxe En Europe Occidentale Au Xxe Siècle
    Review Christine Chaillot (Ed.) L’Église orthodoxe en Europe occidentale au XXe siècle (Histoire religieuse de l’Europe contemporaine 5 Foreword by Metropolitan Kallistos Ware of Diokleia Paris: Editions du Cerf 2009), 416 pages Reviewed by Job Getcha The history of the Orthodox Church in the XXth century is indeed very complicated, and even sometimes confusing, especially due to THE AUTHOR constantly changing borders and simultaneous events. Much was determined by nationalism, developed in the XIXth century, which led to the appearance of new independent states at the turn of the XIXth- XXth centuries and to the emergence of new autocephalous Churches, and was marked by two tragic events: the Bolchevic Revolution of 1917, and the Treatise of Lausanne of 1923, which resulted in the exchange of population in Asia Minor. These events had an impact not only on the life and on the Prof. Dr. Job Getcha is organisation of the Orthodox Church in the Archimandrite and Professor of Church History and Liturgie at countries of Eastern Europe, which had been the Orthodox Centre of the traditionally mainly Orthodox by confession, Ecumenical Patriarchate, but also in the rest of the world, since they Chambesy-Geneva, Swiss and Lecturer at the Institut generated a massive emigration of Orthodox Catholique of Paris urn:nbn:de:0276-2010-1228 International Journal of Orthodox Theology 1:1 (2010) 215 faithful.
