Eastern Orthodoxy has a rich historical, theological, liturgical, and artistic tradition that remains unfamiliar to many western Christians. Entering the world of Orthodoxy can be daunting for those who lack the linguistic skills and the patience to encounter a beautiful but alien world. Monachos.net, a freely available website “dedicated to the study of Orthodox Christianity through its patristic, monastic and liturgical heritage,” provides inquirers, scholars, and Orthodox faithful with an abundance of Orthodox resources. The site is maintained by Irenaeus (M.C.) Steenberg, an Orthodox scholar and former Oxford professor, currently principal of St. John of San Francisco Orthodox Academy and visiting scholar at Santa Clara University. An established resource for Eastern Orthodox studies, the site celebrated its tenth anniversary on September 1, 2010.
