Summary/Abstract: This text presents a review by Mircea-Gheorghe Abrudan of Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew's book, "Encountering the Mystery: A Contemporary Presentation of Orthodoxy". The reviewer highlights the Patriarch's profound theological vision, which bridges the bimillennial Orthodox tradition with pressing contemporary global issues. The book explores essential themes such as liturgical art, monasticism, ecology, human rights, social justice, and the vital Christian pursuit of peace amid modern conflicts. Featuring introductory texts by Metropolitan Kallistos Ware and Archdeacon John Chryssavgis, the volume is highly recommended as an authentic, hopeful, and deeply patristic guide to living the Orthodox faith in today's complex world.
