This is the second collection of essays, compiled from opinion columns written during the period 2012-2020, when George Matsoukas served as executive director of Orthodox Christian Laity (OCL). The first collection, A Church in Captivity: The Greek Orthodox Church of America, is also a collection of opinion columns, this one written during the period 1990-2007. This series of observational essays can be considered a first cut in putting together the history of Orthodoxy in America during this 30-year period. These essays also tell the OCL story and provide an insight into how the organization functions.The essays are written from the point of view of how societal events and concerned faithful were energized to advance the mission of Orthodox Christian Laity. OCL is a pan-Orthodox educational and advocacy ministry formed in 1987 to:•advocate for the restoration and strengthening of the historic role of the laity in the conciliar governance of the Orthodox Church in the United States.•support the spiritual renewal and regeneration of the Orthodox Christian Church in the United States in its Apostolic Mission.•advocate for and promote transparency and accountability in the governance of the Orthodox Church in the United States.•advocate for and champion the establishment of an administratively and canonically-unified, self-governing autocephalous Orthodox Christian Church in the United States.Matsoukas musings in his first volume, A Church in Captivity, reflect the deep political changes transpiring after the fall of Communism in the captive Orthodox nations, and then in what manner those national churches began to respond to their diasporas, those still existing multiple jurisdictions in The United States.This weighing of the ongoing strain between those who continue to uphold that a unity through a simple Eucharistic oneness is sufficient and those who insist on a canonically unified Church administration is the stuff of volume two, Under One Roof:
