A
book is being made available that presents a more in-depth look at the
history of the Genuine Orthodox Church of Greece (GOC). The title of
the book is: Genuine Orthodox Church of Greece: A Brief History and Commentary. It is published by Holy Trinity Orthodox Church, Phoenix, Arizona. It is 78 pages in length.
The book has been written to correct the many inaccuracies, misunderstandings, and, in some
instances, the slander told against the Holy Synod of the GOC,
presently under the primacy of His Beatitude Nicholas, Archbishop of
Athens and All Greece.
If you are either learning of the GOC for the first time, or if you
know about the GOC and you are looking for a truthful, accurate
presentation of the history and teachings of the GOC, this may be the
book you are looking for. It is the only one in English.
