Tonight is the second night with the discussion group on this work by St. Cyril of Jerusalem. This is an ecumenical group that Gospel Simplicity, a Protestant, has done a good job of running and so far I've been surprised by the mix of Catholics, Orthodox, and even Pentecostals! We've read through the On Pre-Baptismal Rites section and I'm really enjoying this work. We're using the SVS edition, but you can find an online version here.
As a Catholic, I cannot help but see the clear sacramentalism in this work from baptismal regeneration to the Real Presence in the Eucharist. I'm sure the Orthodox would say something similar which makes me wonder what the Pentecostals will say...
St. Paul Center has a good intro video of this work:
