New Book on Christianity in the East

[Paul Younan]

I think that the release of the new book linked above is very timely and a real eye opener to the West considering what is currently happening in Iraq. Check out the sneak preview on pages 5 and 6 where it talks about Timothy, the patriarch of the Church of the East. I can't wait for its release.

Great link, Mshikhaya...I am picking up a copy right now.

I love the following quotes from page 4, as it pretty much sums up the root of all our problems as Aramaic primacists:

How can we possibly have forgotten such a vast story? ..... In terms of the story of Christianity, which we usually associate so centrally with the making of "The West", much of what we think we know is inaccurate....How can our mental maps of the past be so radically distorted?

The story of Timothy, arguably the most influential Patriarch in the history of the CoE, is great.
