An anthology of foundational texts by Zizioulas, edited by Bishop Maxim Vasiljević and Stavros Yangazoglou and published by Sebastian Press in 2026 (Contemporary Christian Thought Series, 101; 402 pages). It is arranged in three parts, The Orthodox Worldview, Orthodoxy in History, and Orthodoxy and the Modern World. Its theme is the Trinity as the source of all existence and the Church as the communion in which people recover their identity as persons; the essays cover the Eucharist and sacraments, the Fathers, the Great Schism and East–West relations, globalisation, technology, secularisation and ecumenical dialogue. The publisher presents it as written for readers with no prior theological background.
