The twentieth century for Ukrainian Orthodoxy is marked by tragic divisions between the Orthodox Churches. From the first efforts of state formation in Ukraine in 1917, church leaders were unable to agree on the nature of the Ukrainian Church in the new conditions of public life. The controversy revolved mainly around two issues - independence from the Russian Church and the use of the Ukrainian language in worship. Deacon Mykola Denysenko, Professor of Theology at the University of Valparaiso (Indiana, USA), author of many works, including Church History and Liturgy, offers a balanced and comprehensive analysis of Orthodoxy in Ukraine from the early twentieth century to the present. On the basis of archival and published material, the author examines the dynamics of the unfolding of both internal church events and the relations of the Ukrainian Churches with the states in which they found themselves during this turbulent period. An in-depth study of the difficult path of Ukrainian Orthodoxy to understanding its mission should become an important tool for resolving modern church issues and more effectively direct efforts to the church unity commanded by Jesus Christ and dreamed of by Ukrainian believers.
This outstanding study will be useful to all readers interested in the history and present of Christianity.
