It has not gone unnoticed by many of our clergy in the Missouri Synod that the draw to "go East" has remained steady since the late 20th century. The need for material answering EO theology should be apparent. We have many Lutheran sources addressing the Roman Catholic Church, Reformed theology, various small sects of the past, and Evangelicalism, but we have little addressing the EO. This work focuses on supporting the Lutheran doctrine that prayer may be directed only to God and answering EO objections, exhaustively covering the arguments of both the past and present. While coming from a specifically Lutheran perspective, the defense should seem fitting to almost all Protestants.
