Church and Mission: Quick Reflection from Class on 11/2/09

This past class we continued our discussion of Eastern Orthodoxy, mostly watching a film about its history. We also discussed other types of Orthodoxy such as the Patriarchates in Alexandria, Antioch, and Jerusalem as well as the Ethiopian church. It was all very interesting to me since I had no idea that there were other types of Orthodoxy besides Greek and Russian. I had known about the Coptic, Indian and Ethiopian churches, however the rest were new to me and I intend to research them more as I have time.
