The Path of Orthodoxy

Recently passed away to the Lord, Metropolitan Diocletian Callistus (Ware) is one of the most well-known and influential Orthodox theologians today. For many readers around the world, it is he who has revealed the phenomenon of the 'ancient and eternally youthful' faith. Possessing the gift of a systematizer, Met. Callistus can convey the theological heritage of Orthodoxy with extraordinary precision and adequacy in contemporary language.

In the book 'The Path of Orthodoxy,' presented in this edition in a new translation, Bishop Callistus, relying on a wide patristic context, speaks of the Orthodox faith as a spiritual Path. The living experience of the Church's Tradition speaks of the Christian's life journey as a movement of ascension, an embodiment of the soul's aspiration towards God. And the experience gained by those who have walked this path before us becomes a kind of road sign, a guide to the longed-for Meeting.
