Thomas C. Oden
The International Edition
A reversal has occurred in our time. The faithful have in fact outlived the collapse of the foundations of secular society. Familiar dominant patterns of thought have lost their immune system for recuperation. The modern outlook is disintegrating. But communities of traditional faith flourish more than ever.
We are witnessing an emerging resolve in worldwide Christianity and Judaism to reclaim the familiar classic spiritual disciplines: close study of, scripture, daily prayer, regular observance in a worshiping community, doctrinal integrity, and moral accountability. Even though my voice is Protestant, the arguments and evidences apply equally to Catholic, Orthodox, and Jewish life.
Turning from the illusions of modern life, the faithful are now quietly returning to the spiritual disciplines that have profoundly shaped their history, and in fact have enabled their survival. This is the rebirth of orthodoxy.
