💡 What makes the Ethiopian Orthodox Church so unique—and why has its ancient wisdom been overlooked for so long? In this episode of the Black Jesus series, we explore the rich traditions, history, and biblical depth of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, one of the oldest Christian institutions in the world.

Black Jesus reveals how the Ethiopian Church preserved sacred texts, such as the Book of Enoch and Jubilees, long before they were excluded from Western Bibles. This church’s legacy is deeply rooted in Africa’s spiritual identity—and Black Jesus brings that truth to light.

From rituals to hidden scriptures, the Ethiopian Orthodox tradition holds powerful insights into the life of Christ, the apostles, and early Christian history—insights that align with the message of Black Jesus and challenge mainstream narratives.

⛪ Watch now as Black Jesus walks you through the foundation, faith, and deep significance of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church.

Ethiopia's Orthodox Tewahedo Church is one of the largest and oldest in Africa.
But there's been a split within its ranks after three Bishops formed their own patriarchate they named 'Oromia and Nations and Nationalities Synod’ last month.
The move led to weeks of unrest, divisions and violence in some regions.
The government has banned rallies and restricted social media.
But the fallout could still have ramifications for the Church itself and the country.

So, what's behind this schism in the Ethiopian Orthodox church?

Presenter: Mohammed Jamjoom

Guests:

Father Alemayehu Desta - a Priest at the Holy Trinity Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church in Texas.

Arega Getaneh - a Theologian specializing in Ethiopia’s extensive religious groups.

Tewodrose Tirfe - Chairman of the Amhara Association of America.
