Overview

The History and Theology of the Russian Orthodox Church collection (5 vols.) is perfect for anyone interested in a thorough introduction to Orthodox Christianity in the land of Rus. In a nation with over 1,000 years of continuous, Christian faith and tradition, Russian Christianity has been forged by a number of trials and tribulations, including most recently the atheistic, Soviet oppression. This collection includes a number of English language volumes on the history of the Church in Russia, the adoption of Orthodox Christianity as its state religion, the interaction between Russian Christianity and the surrounding nations, and even a number of lectures and sermons from a Russian priest in the latter part of the nineteenth century, providing an informative glimpse into the Russian piety of the pre-Soviet era.
