A Very Short Introduction

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Orthodox Christianity: A Very Short Introduction explores the history, beliefs, and practices of the Orthodox Church. Although it is Christianity's second largest denomination, Orthodoxy remains shrouded in mystery and misinformation. This Very Short Introduction lifts that shroud to show Orthodoxy for what it is--a living, breathing way of being Christian embraced by some 300 million believers worldwide.
