beautiful look at Christian spirituality thru history,

This review is from: Ages of the Spiritual Life (Paperback)
As co-translator of this book, an Evdokimov scholar and Orthodox priest, it's a joy to share the insight of this lay theologian of our time. This is a challenging,rich journey through our century's crisis of faith,Christian spirituality's development,especially monasticism's gifts, and how authentic spiritual life can be lived today.

This review is from: Ages of the Spiritual Life (Paperback)
This book, written by a russian lay theologian, introduces Orthodoxy, as lived and practiced in ancient centuries, to modern man. It is a good introduction to the ancient orthodox christian faith. The author describes well the idea of interiorized monasticism. As an Orthodox, what I did not like about this book are the somehow comprimising ideas of Edokimov with western philosophers and scholars.

Paul Evdokimov is in the ranks with Merton and Nouwen in the realm of great spritual writers. His experiences are unique and color his writing brining his ideals to life.It has great value as well with his philosophical arguments crushing atheism. One of the great minds of the 20th century |
