A confession and manifesto from a senior leader in the emerging church movement. A Generous Orthodoxy calls for a radical, Christ-centered orthodoxy of faith and practice in a missional, generous spirit. Brian McLaren argues for a post-liberal, post-conservative, post-protestant convergence, which will stimulate lively interest and global conversation among thoughtful Christians from all traditions.In a sweeping exploration of belief, author Brian McLaren takes us across the landscape of faith, envisioning an orthodoxy that aims for Jesus, is driven by love, and is defined by missional intent. A Generous Orthodoxy rediscovers the mysterious and compelling ways that Jesus can be embraced across the entire Christian horizon. Rather than establishing what is and is not “orthodox,” McLaren walks through the many traditions of faith, bringing to the center a way of life that draws us closer to Christ and to each other. Whether you find yourself inside, outside, or somewhere on the fringe of Christianity, A Generous Orthodoxy draws you toward a way of living that looks beyond the “us/them” paradigm to the blessed and ancient paradox of “we.”

Originally published in 1965, Evdokimov's Orthodoxy presents a synthesis of the essential elements of Orthodox traditions as they appear throughput Church history - revealing the fruit born from the Russian diaspora in Western Europe and the interface of Orthodoxy with both the Christian and atheist West. Evodokimov quotes the 'Father' in order to bring their wisdom to bear on the modern spirit and in modern discourse. Rooting things in the anthropological teaching that 'God became human so that humans might became God,' Evdokimov considers asceticism, mysticism, ecclesiology, the faith of the Church, the prayer of the Church, and Eschaton or 'Last Things.' In his preface to the 1979 edition, Olivier Clément wrote that Evdokimov's descriptions of the Last Things show that the 'eschatological process is already at work' and that 'the Parousia will not be the return of Christ into the world but the "passing over" of the world into Christ ... Evdokimov appeals to a saintliness that is both kenotic and creative, humble but capable of radiating life into all the complexity of history ... [He speaks] to all who desire not accommodations between churches, whether diplomatic or whatever people are willing to settle for, but "the centre where the Lines converge."' Book jacket.
