Akathist to Jesus the Conqueror of Death, by St. Nikolai Velimirovich St. Nikolai (Velimirovich) composed this deeply theological, personal expression of love for the Resurrected Lord in his own hand, on Pascha 1923, and dedicated it to Fr. Justin Popovic. Astonishingly deep and personal, this akathist is a real treasure written by a saint of our own time. You will want to use this handy book again and again.

Akathist to the Venerable Father Paisius (Velichkovsky) Our Father among the Saints, the Great Schema-Archimandrite Paisius (1722-1794), truly is, as this akathist says, a "chosen commander of spiritual warriors, guide and all-wondrous shepherd of monks, who through the writings of the Fathers fed our souls." And he feeds us yet today, though his writings, his witness, and most importantly through his heavenly intercession.

Book: A Song in the Furnace: The Message of the Book of Daniel Like Daniel, we also live in Babylon, awaiting its apocalyptic fall, and like Daniel’s three holy and youthful friends, we also increasingly stand face to face with Nebuchadnezzar as he demands our cultural submission to an alien ideology. . . . This then is the urgent message of the Book of Daniel. As we stand before the powers of the age and hear the demand for cultural assimilation and surrender to secularism, we must make our own the words of the three young men to the king as the furnace of fury burned before them.

Book: Alexander Schmorell: Saint of the German Resistance As Alexander languished in prison, his inner peace unfolded further, contrasting sharply with the mood expressed in letters he had written during the winter prior to his arrest, complaining that “bleakness and sadness have become my constant companions,” and that “dreadful disquiet is the prevailing characteristic of my life,” with no respite of calm.

Book: An Introduction to God: Encountering the Divine in Orthodox Christianity Fr. Andrew Damick has written a beautiful, humble, and profound book on the mystery of God’s love for mankind. It is beautiful because the author is introducing the reader to the Beautiful One. It is humble because Fr. Andrew has no interest in conveying his own ideas or philosophies—only the True Faith as passed down from Christ and His Apostles from generation to generation. It is profound because it is a clear and prayerful exposition of pristine Christianity.
