Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early Christian spirituality is a topic of enduring fascination today among scholars and general readers alike.

In this gracious tour through our tradition, Norris J. Chumley (Mysteries of the Jesus Prayer, HarperOne 2011) introduces us to Hesychasm, or silence and the lives of its early practicioners. Then, as only a teacher and mentor can, he opens up those important meanings for today.

Book Synopsis Metamorphosis by : Andreas Andreopoulos
Download or read book Metamorphosis written by Andreas Andreopoulos and published by St Vladimir's Seminary Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 922 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book taps the vein of the blending of theology and art in the Middle Ages, in particular, the evolution of the imagery and theology surrounding the Transfiguration Of Christ. In this well-researched volume, Andreas Andreopoulos discusses in detail every philosophical and ritual application of the Transfiguration icon - the mountain, the cloud, the mandorla, the positioning of the apostles, the Old Testament prophets, and the image of Christ himself - taking the reader through an illustrated historical journey. The author simplifies the complex relationship between the dogma of the church fathers and Byzantine art and makes it understandable to a non-specialist audience. Nevertheless, theologians, historians, and art historians alike will appreciate the interdisciplinary value of this clearly presented documentation. Andreopoulos's expert use of patristic texts and Jewish sources, as well as the New Testament and apocryphal writings and pagan sources, elucidates the development of art and doctrine that surround this scriptural epiphany."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book John Climacus written by John Chryssavgis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Chryssavgis explores the ascetic teaching and theology of St John Climacus, a classical and formative writer of the Christian medieval East, and the author of the seventh-century Ladder of Divine Ascent. This text proved to be the most widely used handbook of the spiritual life in the Christian East, partly because of its unique and striking symbol of the ladder that binds together the whole book. It has caught the attention of numerous readers in East and West alike through the ages and is a veritable classic of medieval spirituality, whose popularity in the East equals that of The Imitation of Christ in the West. Chryssavgis follows the development and influence of earlier desert literature, from Egypt through Palestine into Sinai, and includes a discussion of the theology of tears, the concept of unceasing prayer, as well as the monastic principles of hesychia (silence) and eros (love).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In these articles, Bradley Nassif focuses on the evangelical reality of the Orthodox Church and reflects on the Orthodox Churches new dialogues with Christians in the Evangelical (Protestant) movement. The Orthodox Church itself is at heart "evangelical," that is, the gospel is at the very center of its theology, liturgy, and spiritual life. This reality is often obscured both for those inside and for those outside the Church. In her dialogue with evangelicals, the Orthodox Church not only finds common ground, but more clearly articulates her own evangelical identity"--
