The Faith Once Delivered: A Concise Introduction to Orthodox Theology

By Chorbishop Nectarios

In an age marked by spiritual confusion and theological novelty, The Faith Once Delivered offers a clear, reverent, and faithful exposition of Orthodox Christianity. Rooted in Holy Scripture, illuminated by the Fathers, and shaped by the living worship of the Church, this concise theological work presents the foundational doctrines of the Orthodox faith with both pastoral clarity and theological depth.

From the mystery of the Holy Trinity to the hope of the life to come, each chapter unfolds a vital truth of the Church's apostolic teaching-truths not invented, but received, preserved, and proclaimed through the centuries. With chapters on the knowledge of God, the Incarnation, salvation as theosis, the sacramental life, Christian ethics, and eschatology, the reader is gently guided into the heart of Orthodox doctrine and practice.

Written for catechumens, inquirers, and faithful alike, The Faith Once Delivered does not merely inform-it invites the reader into communion with the living God. Its voice is neither speculative nor polemical, but humble and steadfast, echoing the mind of the Church and the witness of the saints.

Whether read in preparation for baptism or as a fresh engagement with the riches of Orthodox theology, this volume stands as a faithful guide to "the faith once delivered unto the saints" (Jude 1:3)-a faith unchanging, life-giving, and eternally true.
