Estos relatos nos cuentan, básicamente, una peregrinación a pie por regiones de Rusia y Siberia. Pero ese peregrinar es a su vez una búsqueda. El personaje central inicia una vía de aprendizaje: busca conocer los secretos de la oración interior y permanente, por la invocación del nombre santo de Jesús. Como todo caminante de la Fe (y cada uno de nosotros, los creyentes, lo somos) cree saber lo que busca, pero desconoce lo que ha de hallar, que siempre, por los dones de la Gracia, será infinitamente superior a lo esperado.

El evangelio de Jesucristo no trata de lo que Jesús puede hacer por tu vida. Ni siquiera es la respuesta a la pregunta: «¿cómo puedo ser salvo?». El evangelio es la declaración de una victoria. En su venida a la tierra, en su sufrimiento y en su resurrección, Cristo venció a los demonios, al pecado y a la muerte.

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. Елена Капитанова своей первой книгой "Православие без потерь" решила навести порядок в головах тех, кто только стоит на пути воцерковления или уже давно в Церкви, но так и не понял, что к чему.

В Православной церкви множество имен, прославленных святостью жизни, мученичеством и духовными подвигами. Вся европейская культура родилась на крови мучеников. И они никак не умещаются в усеченный список ста православных святых. Но серди них выделяются имена, ставшие образцами святости на многие века, признанные всем православным миром. И на Руси было особое почитание святых, благодаря молитвенным подвигам которых определилось само существование Отечества нашего как православной страны.

Edited by Archimandrite Vassilios Papavassiliou, The Ancient Faith Prayer Book brings together the most ancient and popular prayers of Orthodox Christians, with some additions that address issues of contemporary life.

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.

Though it’s often too subtle to see, much of modern Christianity has fallen prey to the ancient Gnostic heresy which taught that the material world has no lasting spiritual value. Rediscovering the Goodness of Creation diagnoses the problem, takes us through its history, and helps us discover “the purposefulness of the material world, the goodness of the human body, and the eschatological hope of a transformed universe.”

Like a trusted map, Healing Work orients listeners with practical strategies and insights they need to navigate healing’s successes and setbacks with wisdom and confidence. While recognizing that deep emotional pain can defy easy answers, Healing Work shows that true and total healing is possible for us, no matter how severe our wounds. With the techniques in this book, we can acquire the skills that enable us to finally let go of the pain and fear that hold us captive.

Popular author and speaker Fr. Stephen Freeman explores the roots and meaning of both toxic and healthy shame, revealing the crucial importance of this understanding for our relationship with God.

Christian tradition often seems to give only grudging approval to married life, particularly its sexual aspect. In these sermons of St John Chrysostom, we find an important corrective to this view.

An anthology of sermons on the Holy Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, taken from a 19th century multi-volume collection of St Philaret's homilies, and translated for the first time into the English language.

Too often, we as hierarchs, clergy, and lay leaders speak to our people about giving to meet the needs of the church or the needs of the poor, but we forget to teach that the true need for each and every one of us is simply to give.

A Silent Patriarch is the first scholarly biography of the desert hermit who became a most unlikely patriarch. Until now, the details of his life have remained hidden. As patriarch, Kyrillos inherited a bleeding church, one confronted by political Islamism, an indifferent Muslim president, and the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood.

This commentary on the Lord's prayer has been compiled from a series of broadcasts made by Father Alexander Schmemann on Radio Liberty to listeners in the Soviet Union. Because this single short prayer of Christ has everything that needs to be said about God, his kingdom, this life, and all of us, it is not an exaggeration to suggest that in this commentary, Father Schmemann provides us with a map for seeing anew the purpose and measure of our whole life.

In Reclaiming the Great Commission, Fr. Evan Armatas offers a roadmap to help us get back on track. Relying on his 20 years of parish experience, Holy Scripture, and insights from research and his visits with churches across the US, he discusses how you and your community can implement changes that will transform, revitalize, and renew your parish.

It is one of the great mysteries of life that in atmospheres of the harshest cruelty, a certain few not only survive, but emerge as beacons of light and life. Father Arseny, former scholar of church art, became Prisoner No. 18736 in the brutal "special sector" of the Soviet prison camp system.

This book describes the three steps essential to becoming a Christian. Many people may be inquiring and wondering as to exactly how one can become a Christian for themselves; and there might be varying opinions. However, this book discusses three essential steps that are biblically grounded.

Considered by many to be the final and crowning work of the patristic age, St John of Damascus’ On the Orthodox Faith addresses all the major areas of Christian belief: Trinitarian theology, Christology, soteriology, the sacraments, the veneration of icons, saints, relics, and much more.

For Protestants or Catholics seeking to understand Eastern Orthodoxy, the Cross is a good place to start. In the West a multitude of different views sprang up over the last millennium, but Orthodox Christian beliefs have remained unchanged. The contrast between those views is suggested by the two images on the book's cover, showing how differently the meaning of the Cross was understood, East and West.

By any standard, this is a classic of Christian theology. Composed by St. Athanasius in the fourth century, it expounds with simplicity the theological vision defended at the councils of Nicaea and Constantinople: that the Son of God himself became "fully human, so that we might become god."
