The Genesis of Orthodoxy

Sunday, October 1, 2017
The Seventeenth Sunday After Pentecost
10:00 a.m. - 10:45 a.m.

In this series examining the Christian theological tradition, we look at the four ecumenical councils of the Church, as they sought to articulate orthodox Christian belief.

This morning at 10 a.m., the Sunday class on the Christian theological tradition continues, seeking to answer four questions: 1) What is the concept of Christian orthodoxy? 2) What is the content of Christian orthodoxy? 3) How did it come about? 4) Why does it matter? Today we turn to the doctrine of the Holy Spirit, looking especially at the significant contributions of the fourth-century Cappadocian fathers‚ÄîGregory the Theologian, Basil the Great, and Gregory of Nyssa‚Äîas well as the controversy over the filioque, the inclusion by the Western churches of ‚Äúand the Son‚Äù in the Nicene Creed’s article about the Spirit.
