Thank you for your share. I'm not sure how it's relevant to the purpose of this post.

Orthodoxy may seem 'Esoteric' to those unfamiliar with it, but really, once you get to know it everything is right out on the surface.

All the best to you!

Thank you. Would be very interested to see if you get into (or have already touched upon) liturgical practices, as well, as I expect there's a good degree of crossover--as with the cases of pseudo-Dionysius and Saint Maximus the Confessor--between East and West. All the best.

Hi Pete and 🙏 for your interest and support!

I will get to liturgical practices, yes. I weave them into broader themes but will eventually get to the actual rites. In Part 2 of the current article series (coming this Sunday!) I have a brief section comparing Orthodox, Catholic, and Protestant theology in relation to concepts like grace and chrism, and I’ve also looked at the comparative theology in other recent pieces - in this one I go deeper into the theology and have a comparative section as well: https://thyrathen.substack.com/p/god-writes-man-as-an-icon-of-the . I will cover both the baptism and communion liturgies eventually!
