Women Deacons in the Orthodox Church: Called to Holiness and Ministry

The role of women in the Church has been hotly debated by all Christian Churches, especially as it relates to ordained ministry. In the Orthodox Church, this conversation has focused on the existence of women’s ordination to the diaconate. This book traces the development and growth of this ordained expression of ministry in the Christian East. By examining scriptural, patristic, and liturgical evidence, as well as the lives of the women saints identified as deacons, the author demonstrates that women were ordained as deacons to dynamic and evangelical ministries of prayer, teaching, pastoral care and social concern.

Actually, I think of just “the Orthodox East” – I think that orthodoxy divided along such ethnic lines is an embarrassment to the Body of Christ.

Answer by Ollie
“Orthodox” is a word derived from the Greek for “correct teaching.” Accordingly, one can be an orthodox Muslim, orthodox Lutheran, or even an orthodox Marxist.

In the history of Christianity the Western and Eastern (now called Roman Catholic and Orthodox) churches split apart over 1000 years ago.

The Limits of Orthodox Theology: Maimonides’ Thirteen Principles Reappraised

It is commonly asserted that Maimonides’ famous Thirteen Principles are the last word in Orthodox Jewish theology. This is a very popular notion, and is often repeated by scholars from all camps in Judaism. Yet such a position ignores the long history of Jewish theology in which Maimonides’ principles have been subject to great dispute. Now available in paperback, this book begins with a discussion of the significance of the principles and illustrates how they assumed such a central place in traditional Judaism. Each of the principles is then considered in turn – the reasons underlying Maimonides’ formulation are expounded and the disputes that have arisen concerning them are discussed in detail. The authoritative analysis makes it quite cl

Christmas Carols of the Russian Orthodox Church

Vocal music has always constituted an integral part of religious cults of all nations. Yet scarcely ever have there been stronger ties between the chant and the prayer then in the Orthodox liturgy. In the Orthodox liturgical chant, one can find both the splendor of the Byzantium Church ceremonies and the nostalgia of small wooden churches; on the one hand world of ecstasy and on the other lament of the biggest sinner. The tremendously strong impression that the ‘Orthodox singing’ makes on listeners can be ascribed to its duality: it is very simple in its vocal devices, yet enchantingly elaborate in its effects. Among its means of expression there is simple recitation as well as master like polyphony of vocal concertos. Even today this
