About
Details
Eastern Orthodoxy is one of North America's fastest-growing faiths, yet relatively few people understand this non-Western form of Christianity. At the Corner of East and Now helps the reader comprehend both the roots of this ages-old tradition and the passion with which it is practiced by its contemporary followers. "An excellent invitation to Christians of the West to understand a tradition in which worship has neither beginning nor end." -The Dallas Morning News
