Rock and Sand

An Orthodox Appraisal of the Protestant Reformers and Their Teachings

By: Archpriest Josiah Trenham

Narrated by: Father Josiah Trenham

This audiobook has been made for three purposes. First, to provide the Orthodox listener with a competent overview of the history of Protestantism and its major traditions, from its beginnings in the 16th century to the present day. This overview relies heavily upon the Reformer's own words as well as the creeds of various Protestant faiths in order to avoid misrepresentation and caricature.

Second, to acquaint Orthodox and non-Orthodox listeners with a narrative of the historical relations between the Orthodox East and the Protestant West.

Finally, to provide a summary of Orthodox theological opinion on the tenets of Protestantism.

Excellent

I would recommend Dan Carlin's Hardcore History podcast series called "Prophets of Doom" for a deeper dive into some of the Reformation-caused turmoil briefly mentioned in this book.

Wonderful!

Recommended reading for any Protestant whose never heard the Orthodox version of church history! Very abrasive, but right to the point.

Compelling

I like the clarity of the orthodox beliefs, especially when it comes to scripture and interoperating it.

Wonderfully crafted

Fr. Josiah Trenham is wonderful in his love for Holy Orthodoxy and this book is accurately titled when called an appraisal.

Spiritually Edifying and Nourishing

One of the best commentaries on the Protestant reformers and with the clearest scriptural analysis and evidence from an educated priest of the Orthodox Church.
