For two thousand years, the Coptic Orthodox Church has done one thing above all else: handed the apostolic faith — alive, whole, and unbroken — from one generation to the next.

The Coptic Orthodox Church: Living the Apostolic Faith and Worship is not a book about a distant tradition. It is a witness to a living one. From the founding mission of Saint Mark the Evangelist in Egypt to the liturgies celebrated in Coptic churches across the world today, the same faith proclaimed by the apostles continues to be prayed, received, and inhabited by the faithful — in the same sacraments, the same Divine Liturgy, the same disciplines of prayer and fasting, and the same communion of saints that have shaped Christian life since the first century.

Written by a Coptic Orthodox priest from within the tradition he serves, this book guides readers through the full breadth of that inheritance: the apostolic roots of the Church in Egypt, the theology of the Desert Fathers and the martyrs, the Christology defended by Saint Athanasius and Saint Cyril of Alexandria, the seven sacraments as means of divine grace, and the life of worship that draws the faithful into the unceasing prayer of heaven.

The apostolic faith is not a relic. It is not a museum piece preserved behind glass. It is a life — offered, received, and lived anew in every generation that opens its hands to receive it.

This book is written for the seeker approaching this ancient tradition for the first time, for the Coptic Christian who longs to receive their inheritance more deeply, and for every reader who senses that the Church Christ founded is not something that belongs only to the past.

The faith once delivered to the saints is still being delivered. These pages show how.
