ORTHODOX SPIRITUALITY

An thorough introduction of the Orthodox ascetical, mystical and doctrinal tradition. Orthodox spirituality cannot be properly understood apart from the theology on which it rests: that the aim of man’s life is union with God and deification in Christ through the Holy Spirit. …clear, concise, and grounded in common sense;and there is much in the sections on the sacraments that should be read and reread. —Tadeusz Kwasnica O.P., Spirituality Today
