FIRST AND SECOND CORINTHIANS: STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART ( THE ORTHODOX BIBLE STUDY COMPANION SERIES)
Author: FR. LAWRENCE FARLEY
#: 5774
The Orthodox Bible Study Companion Series. The community Paul founded in Corinth gave him both joy and grief, for he was to encounter problems there of disunity, sin, and arrogance - including a rejection by some of his own apostolic authority. His two epistles to the Corinthians came straight from the heart, as he appeals to them to live in peace, in righteousness, in generosity, and not to resist his God-given authority. His Corinthian correspondence abides as a lasting legacy, and a challenge for all churches everywhere.

TRIAL OF JOB, THE : ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN REFLECTIONS ON THE BOOK OF JOB
Author: PATRICK HENRY REARDON
#: 8028
"The book of Job has always constituted essential and formative reading about the ways of the soul. This has always been the conviction of the spiritual classics through the centuries. Yet, for some reason, the figure of Job is elusive to us–possibly because he seems so comfortably distant; or perhaps because he seems so frightfully close. What Fr. Patrick Reardon achieves with this book is to render Job comprehensible, tangible and accessible. Ultimately, all of us identify with one or another aspect of Job's life. As life inevitably informs and as this book intuitively confirms, one cannot sing Psalms without having read Job." – Fr. John Chryssavgis
