      Elisabeth Behr-Sigel, a pivotal Orthodox theologian, dedicated her life to helping her church navigate a changing world after being uprooted from its cultural roots. Born to a Protestant father and Jewish mother, she converted to Orthodoxy at 24 and became involved in ecumenism during WWII, aiding Jews in France. She taught at various theological institutions and wrote extensively on Orthodox theology and women's roles in the Church. This biography by Olga Lossky, based on Behr-Sigel's personal reflections, presents her inspiring journey and contributions to faith and ecumenism.
