COTEL joins me to cover Lossky's classic book introducing Orthodox theology. We cover the first half of the book highlighting the contrast with western trends and note how Lossky in accord with Fr Staniloae, Meyendorff, Fr Florovksy and Larchet, being faithful to St. Gregory Palamas and the Pillars of Orthodoxy. We cover the logoi and the imossibility of melding Palamas with Aquinas.
