Orthodoxy as a Community, Part V – Foundations of Community

Orthodoxy as a Community, Part V – Foundations of Community: The primary function of the Church revolves not around temple service but around something much larger, something that the worship within the temple actually points us to: the call of philanthropy and community. We have seen that even Christ himself says that when we pass to eternity, at the Last Judgement, we will be judged based on this philanthropic calling (Matthew 25).
