Introduction to the Coptic Orthodox Church (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798241402677)

In An Introduction to the Coptic Orthodox Church, Fr. Tadros Y. Malaty presents the faith, life, and spiritual vision of the Coptic Church with pastoral warmth and clarity. Rooted in the apostolic foundation laid by St. Mark the Evangelist, this book reveals a Church that is ancient in her faith yet ever renewed by the living Christ. Moving beyond history alone, the book invites into the heart of Orthodox Christianity: biblical faith, sacramental life, worship, prayer, monastic spirituality, and the sanctification of daily life. With simplicity and depth, Fr. Tadros explains not only what the Church believes, but why she prays as she does and how her traditions form whole, living disciples of Christ. Written for readers of every background, this introduction speaks to: - Christians seeking roots and continuity - Those curious about Orthodox worship and theology - Families, servants, and seekers longing for a faith that is lived, not only studied Throughout these pages, the Coptic Church is revealed as a Church of martyrdom and joy, discipline and love, heaven and earth-a spiritual home that embraces every person and calls each one into communion with God. This book is an invitation to encounter Orthodoxy not as an abstract tradition, but as a living path in Christ.
