Publisher's Synopsis
The Eastern Churches are a diverse group ranging from large churches like the Russian and Greek Orthodox to smaller ones like the Ethiopian Orthodox and the Eastern-rite Catholic churches. This booklet explores how historical differences came about, what the status of each Church is, and what characterises the spiritual life and worship of our Eastern brethren. Only by understanding and respecting each other's differences will the Church be reunited and 'breathe with both lungs', East and West.
