Born from on High

(John 3:3)

$20.00

The present book contains chapters St Sophrony wrote on the theological and ascetic basis for Christian life. He writes about the Christian life of married couples and of those called to monasticism.
Themes which are central to his thought, such as personhood, and repentance, are looked at again here, but as ever with fresh and ins­piring insight.
