About Orthodox Churches
Orthodox Christianity — including Greek Orthodox, Russian Orthodox, Antiochian Orthodox, and other jurisdictions — represents one of the oldest continuous Christian traditions, dating to the early Church fathers and the seven Ecumenical Councils. Worship is deeply liturgical and sensory: incense, icons, candles, and ancient chants in Greek, Slavonic, or English surround the faithful. The Divine Liturgy, attributed to St. John Chrysostom, has been prayed in essentially the same form for over 1,500 years. Orthodox theology emphasizes theosis — the process of becoming more fully united with God — and holds that salvation is a lifelong journey of transformation. Fasting, prayer, and participation in the sacraments structure the Orthodox Christian's daily and yearly rhythm.
