Summary: Powerful, but Incomplete
Comment: I only gave this a three star rating as nowhere in this book are the pitfalls of falling into superioriority complexes get addressed. The ideals are polished and his personal faith explained-- Michael Harper has definitely lived his life doing as God had bade him and given his heart to Him.
But Orthodoxy is more than a set of ideals and philosophies based on God's Word. It's a bunch of people. Once you get in or even part way in, it is just like college when you started talking like a liberal, only with Orthodoxy your language gets peppered with word phrases like, "The One True Way", "The Truth", "Obedience to Father" (who is an emmisary of God and well-- they are human, too)"The One Church" "The One True Church"-- Orthodox Christian Churches can get pretty exclusionary to visitors and don't tolerate struggling parents with fussy babies or any potential struggles very well, and this is the reason that I feel that it started to take off in the US and then pettered out. England needs to watch herself that they become a light on a Hill that people seek, as opposed to a light that only shines on her own members.
