Dear Parish Faithful,
I just read an announcement for a new book(let) that has recently appeared. Here is the promotional blurb:
Face to Face: A Guide for Orthodox Christians Encountering Muslims by Fr. Ted Pulcini
The author, an Orthodox priest and college professor (PhD), offers an invaluable guide to Orthodox Christians in their encounter with Muslims. In seven chapters he examines what both religions teach on the Understanding of God, Revelation, Sin and Salvation, Religious Community, Presenting Christianity to Muslims, etc. Clearly and simply written in non-theological parlance. 32 pgs. $5.95
As many of you may recall, we had a very lively and very well-attended discussion last Fall about the differences between Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism. The booklet we used was also by Fr. Pulcini. I would like to have the same type of gathering in the early Fall to discuss what is becoming one of the major 'issues' of the postmodern world - the relationship between Christians and Muslims. Please let me know if you would like a copy of this booklet and I will order them later in the Summer. As you can see, it is rather inexpensive.
Fr. Steven
Webmaster's Notes:
- Fr. Ted Pulcini's booklet may also be ordered direct from Light and Life Publishing.
- In addition, here is a link to an insightful interview with Fr Ted Pulcini on this topic from The Illumined Heart, one of the premiere podcasts on Ancient Faith Radio. If you have trouble with the link, go to the main page of The Illumined Heart.
