This unpretentious little book of meditations based on Scripture, ancient hymns, and writings from Church Fathers will nourish the souls of reflective seekers during the forty-day period of Great Lent. Authors of each meditation have delved deeply into the sins and shortcomings of their own hearts, enabling readers to share in a collective human experience—from darkness to light, from despair to hope, and from isolation to commonality in the body of Christ—as they move steadily toward our Lord's Resurrection. Orthodox theology—as practiced by those who are properly qualified by both training and a deep relationship with Christ.
