He loved photography and computers. Djordje was very independent, he lived alone, yet took the best care he could of himself and his property, especially his yard. He had big blue eyes and could be very charming. The clerks at his bank were very fond of him.

Djordje Popovic wishes were that his entire Estate; money, real estate, personal property, be bequeathed to St. Stephen’s Serbian Orthodox Church. He did this to honor his mother Marija, who was of the Serbian Orthodox faith.

An Unconventional Handbook of Orthodox Theology

by Rev. Vladan Perisic

Foreword
by Fr John Behr

It is a great pleasure to see this work published, making available some of the most important writings of Fr Vladan Perisic over the last couple of decades available, together in one volume, to an English speaking audience. Fr Vladan’s work is well known in Serbia, and in broader academic and ecumenical circles. But it can now receive the much wider readership that it deserves, and, as a collected volume, its scope, coherence, and significance is sure to receive the recognition it deserves.

The eighteen essays collected here treat diverse topics, from academic theology (and its place in the Church) to questions of life and death, from historically oriented studies, on Sts Ignatius and Gregory Palamas, to contemporary issues, such as human rights and ecology. Each of them is characterized by meticulous scholarship and great insight, clarity of thought and expression.
