Description
This three-part series is intended as an introduction to the Orthodox Church—its life, teachings and traditions. The programs, produced by GOTelecom (Greek Orthodox Telecommunications), will be especially appreciated by those unfamiliar with this ancient Christian church. The production was filmed in Greece, Israel, Syria, Egypt, Turkey, Russia, Italy, England, and the United States. Three 30-minute tapes with comprehensive study guide. In Part I, The Beginnings, the journey begins with the founding of the Church and continues with the spread of Christianity to the “nations” by the Apostles. This is the period of persecutions and martyrdom and the subsequent legalization of the Church during the birth of Byzantium. Part II, Byzantium, covers the spread of the Gospel to the Slavic people, the development of the Monastic movement, the Great Schism between East and West, and the last hours of Constantinople. Part III, A Hidden Treasure, explores the captivity of Orthodoxy under Islam (after the fall of Byzantium) and Communism (in Eastern Europe). Massive immigration allowed Orthodoxy to flourish in the New World, but presented new challenges for the future. The leaders of World Orthodoxy provide insight into the essence of their Church today.
