More DescriptionCatholicism and Orthodox Christianity, Third Edition traces the roots of
these religions from early Christian churches to the way these religions
are observed today. Recounted here is the historical passage of the
Catholic and Orthodox faiths, from the original teachings of Jesus
Christ to the early separation of the Eastern and Western Churches to
recent attempts at reconciliation. The central doctrines of Catholicism
and Orthodox Christianity are explored as background to current

ecumenism and interreligious dialogue, and the role of lay
communities are also highlighted. Written in clear, accessible language
that has become the hallmark of the World Religions series.
