Let us say at the outset that we Orthodox, in the world as it is, have been inadequate in our job. I'm not blaming anyone. And I won't say we haven't ministered enough, or communicated in the vernacular enough, or haven't been compassionate enough, or even tried to get along enough. Maybe we haven't. Maybe my Oklahoman Slavonic and fuzzy sermons put off contemporary ears. And true. Maybe my Byzantine vestments are offensively anachronistic. Maybe my hierarchs function in titles and offices that are bound too much in the past for today's sensibilities. But what the world needs now is not love, true love (i.e. "It's the only thing that there's much too little of"). Oh but we should love, don't get me wrong. But frankly, other communities and governments (even) can minister better than we ever can. What the world needs now is only what we, when the foil is shook, can articulate, in art, in its perfection. Wisdom. Sophia, to perceive the glory of the Lord as beauty, to apprehend natura naturans, not as mere lifeless mechanism. Our evangelism is undivorceable from our ecology/economy. Our evangelism can only be sophiological. When we do this we shall be one, and inexorable.
