- "The Central Orthodox doctrine is called theosis or theopoesis—the divinizing or deifying of humanity. The Eastern Church does not call for believers to imitate Jesus through the exercise of moral choice, as in the familiar western and liberal Protestant pattern. It summons them rather to participate in the life of Christ through the transformative power of the liturgy and sacraments of the church."
- "Finally, the conclusion to this manuscript interprets the text of the Annunciation as theopoesis—as a theopoetic reflection on the enfolding and unfolding of divinity."
