Fr. Hopko, former dean of St. Vladimir's Theological Seminary, compiles a very insightful collection of essays in this short book. He covers Christian anthropology, the role of the scripture in Orthodoxy, what is Church and how does it relate to the ecumenical question, reflections of Eastern Rite Roman Catholicism (the red headed step-child of Catholicism at times), children and the Eucharist, Orthodoxy and the American Spirit, and witness and service in Christian life.All of the essays are thoughtful and well-written. Anyone who has had the pleasure of hearing Fr. Hopko lecture will immediately recognize the same wit, warmth, love, and insight that marks every essay. So aside from the rather dated cover, it is a great read. Enjoy!
