Energy in Orthodox Theology and Physics

Theology

Foreword

“This work by Stoyan Tanev is by far the most thorough analysis yet made of the structural isomorphism in the roles played by the concept of energy in physics and theology. It promises to open up new areas of inquiry for all who are interested in the essence/energies distinction, Eastern Orthodox theology, or the relationship between theology and science.”

Moral Formation and the Virtuous Life

Theology

“What it means to live a good life is today perhaps more contested than ever before. The early church had a clear and distinctive teaching on this subject. Despite the passage of two millennia, it is still capable of speaking to us today. This collection of texts makes the early Christian heritage of moral and spiritual wisdom accessible to all.”

Origen’s Revenge

Theology

“Although much has been written about early Christian views of sexuality, no one has put all the pieces together in the same bold and comprehensive way as in this work. Mitchell describes the tensions that existed in Christian teaching about sexuality from the beginning and offers a positive proposal for how these tensions can be resolved. A fascinating and provocative book.”
