Longtime Orthodox Christian

The more deeply immersed a person is in Holy Orthodoxy the more they will appreciate this book. The author is the Abbot of Stavronikita Monastery on Mount Athos. As such he has lived the experience of the Divine Liturgy and the many other services of the Church over many years. He does an excellent job of distilling into words his experience of God in the Church. Or to put it another way: he has expressed the inexpressible very well indeed. Come, stand in the Liturgy, join in worship and in time this will become clear.
