| Summary: | The challenge of Orthodox theology is both to assimilate patristic knowledge and to apply it in a vibrant and transformative way to the existential state of the contemporary world.

The author seeks to answer this query by resorting to the work of Father Dumitru Stăniloae (1903-1993) as a paradigm. |
