Summary/Abstract: In this study, the author presents the main elements that characterize the missionary concept, of the great theologian and philosopher interwar Nichifor Crainic, analysing both his philosophical work, the poetic and theological, widespread both in antum or postum published volumes pages as well as pages of magazines Gândirea, Vremi,Ramuri, Transylvania etc. Unlike quasi-known missionary conceptions of Eastern theology, Crainic concept approach is distinguished both by its originality as well as through the way in which the author correlates with the patriotic Christian principles, foot printed without falling intofilets, with the Christian ideal and national feeling. Rid of the some contrasting attitudes of the controversies that have generated both actionsas well as some of his ideas, author researched opera proves equally prodigious through stretch and content, and harnessing its emphasis isvery profitable for Romanian Orthodox theology. Therefore, the present research, which proposes a new approach, comparing his opera withcritical opinions about it, is meant to be both a tribute to the great authorand a fruitful and useful research, that adheres to the theme proposed inthis year by the Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church, having multiple practical applications.
