A look back at just some of the scholarly works in Eastern Christianity to emerge this year: http://easternchristianbooks.blogspot.com/2015/12/christmas-2015-recommendations.html

Very nice, Professor, and thank you for keeping us updated about these.

Plenty of good stuff to read and study! (I want to get a copy of your book on papal authority . . . where is an available source for it?)

I somehow missed this list since I have been introduced to your blog (six months ago, or so), but I am glad to have found it now. Of particular interest to me is your interview with Fr. John Manoussakis.

I find this quote from him to be rather encouraging as an American trying to live in the light of the East:

"I was thinking recently of the important role that the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America played, and continues to play, in this rapprochement: the great Patriarch Athenagoras, who became the man with the courage to open his arms to the Pope at that historic embrace of 1964 in Jerusalem, had previously served as the Archbishop of America. Similarly, Archbishop Iakovos of America and Athenagoras of Thyatira were instrumental to those first meetings that broke the silence of centuries. The affiliation of all these men with the Orthodox Church in America is not accidental. From the vantage point of a religiously homogeneous country (often with a “national Church”), such as the historically Orthodox countries of Russia and the Balkans, it is difficult to recognize in the face of the fellow Christian, whether Catholic or Protestant, a brother or sister in Christ, without mistaking it for the face of the enemy."
