By following the lead of saints, we can learn to embrace a simple and profound way of life in communion with Christ and with others.

Елена Капитанова – Несвятая несвятая», как она себя называет, которая предпочитает платкам и сарафанам косуху и штаны, а косице – распущенные роскошные волосы. Вы думаете, верующие люди – скучные, недалекие, неудачливые и вообще не от мира сего? Вот потому и прячутся за платками и длинными юбками, за бородами и рясами – кто в храмах, кто в монастырях.

Many Christians today divide ancient Jewish and Christian literature into two categories: what is in the Bible and what is not. The Christian East, however, has traditionally described a third category considered beneficial for Christians to listen to in the home: “apocrypha.” These texts, from the centuries before and after the Incarnation of Jesus Christ—beyond even the larger canons of the Orthodox and Roman Catholic Old Testaments—reveal to us the religious world and theological framework of the apostles and early Church Fathers.
