Living Faith: An Orthodox Christian Conversation with Evangelicals

by Lawrence R. Farley

Much has been written about the similarities and differences between the Orthodox and Evangelical faiths. In this book, Fr. Lawrence Farley provides a concise and non-confrontational summary of the major issues that divide the two. Evangelicals inquiring into Orthodoxy, Orthodox Christians who want to speak knowledgeably with evangelical friends, and Orthodox Christians who simply wish to understand and appreciate their own tradition more fully will find this book  useful and accessible.

Praise for Living Faith

"Fr. Lawrence's familiarity with evangelicals enables him to speak about the Orthodox faith in a gentle, non-confrontational way. He does not insult the sincere faith, but invites them to take a longer look at Orthodoxy. Many evangelicals are looking for Orthodoxy; they just don't know it yet. Fr. Lawrence's book answers their questions, and helps them begin the journey." -Frederica Mathewes-Green

"What sets this book apart from other, more popular attempts by Orthodox writers on the subject is its level of sophistication. Fr. Lawrence provides answers based on sound biblical exegesis and the influence of Second-Temple Judaism on early Christianity. The book provides readers with a mature comparative analysis of key aspects that differentiate Orthodox from evangelicals. Fr. Lawrence's careful reasoning and keen historical insight make this a "must read" for anyone interested in the theological relationship between our two traditions." -Bradley Nassif, author of The Evangelical Theology of the Orthodox Church
