This volume focuses on the non-Protestant Christian groups, surveying (1) the Eastern Orthodox Church, its Byzantine heritage, its pilgrim identity, and its liturgical, monastic, and mystical dimensions; (2) the incidence of division in the Church since its inception, from the fifth-century schisms to the heresies of Arius and Nestorius and beyond (the effects and fruit of which are still evident in the present day); and (3) the emergence of ecumenism as the means toward achieving Christian unity, its proponents and detractors, and its prospects at the opening of the Second Vatican Council.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChrist prayed that his followers may be one.
