- Book Synopsis
- An outstanding exploration of Orthodox spirituality centering on the key themes of the Eucharist and asceticism * 'A sparkling (and challenging!) introduction to Orthodox spiritual theology seen through the lens of contemporary Orthodox theology' - Edith M. Humphrey * 'Particularly valuable to the current theological dialogue and rapprochement of Eastern and Western Christians' - Protopresbyter George Dion Dragas * 'Insightful, soberly critical, dialogical and transformative. A highly valuable theological reading' - Stoyan Tanev Guided by the teachings of celebrated Orthodox theologian Metropolitan John Zizioulas, this outstanding volume by Maxym Lysack demonstrates the twin importance to Orthodox spiritual theology of asceticism (usually practised as a personal discipline) and the Eucharist (the corporate celebration that makes us one with God as Church), and also the essential complementarity of the two approaches.
