The Splendor of Time: Time and Eternity in Eastern Christian Thought
The Splendor of Time: Time and Eternity in Eastern Christian Thought
Time is the fabric of experience and early Christians lived in the splendor of time, for they knew that Christ’s incarnation had breached the borders of time and eternity.
A compelling look at the older Christian conception of time as revealed through the early Church and the Holy Fathers, particularly St. Maximos the Confessor. Join us as we explore the post-modern use and misuse of time, and how liturgy and ritual allow us to rediscover sacred time and space.
This unique compilation includes a clear and illuminating theology of time by the western Orthodox theologian Olivier Clément, reflections on our use of time from Frederica de Graff and Metropolitan Anthony Bloom, and a fascinating look at the Medieval and Byzantine concepts of time by historian Juliana Bibas.
