What I like about Fr. Peter Farrington is that he takes a reasonable, ecumenical approach toward Eastern Orthodox. Feel free to post some essays by him that you like or recommend.
Fr. Peter Farrington on Protestant Attempts to Influence the Coptic Orthodox Church Part I (http://returntoorthodoxy.com/peter-farrington-protestant-attempts-influence-coptic-orthodox-church/)
I would like to see a Part 2 if you know of one.
Can the Oriental Orthodox receive the Eastern Orthodox Councils?

That They May Be One – Reflections on Christian Unity
I think that this is the first chapter of a book, at least that is what it sounds like based on the underlined part above.

That They May Be One – Reflections on Christian Unity
http://www.stgeorgeministry.com/?p=443If the Orthodox Churches have such an unprecedented opportunity to work for the restoration of communion then what is required of them to make the most of this dialogue? Surely it must be a willingness to listen to the other party with sincerity and honesty putting aside all polemics and stereotypes. The Oriental Orthodox can easily fall back on accusations of Chalcedonian Nestorianism, and the Eastern Orthodox have their accusations of non-Chalcedonian Eutychianism. Such attitudes prevent all progress and are essentially un-Orthodox, since they fail to show that Christian charity which is the mark of true faith. There must be a willingness to unravel the historic theological terminology each side has used and promoted.

The intent of this study is to support and promote the ongoing dialogue between the Eastern and Oriental Orthodox Churches. Many Eastern Orthodox are still unaware of the actual content of the Christology of the Oriental Orthodox, it is hoped that these chapters may play some small part in supplying that lack.
