‎A Night in the Desert of the Holy Mountain‎

‎<p>In English. Soft cover 21 cm 176 pp.; net weight 300 gr.</p><p>This is the author’s first book and has a distinguished place among all his writings because of its wide circulation. It is already in its 18th edition – the first having been published in 1978 – and has been translated into ten foreign languages up until now. The book is written in the form of a dialogue and centres on a discussion which the author had with a holy Elder and hermit one evening in the desert of the Holy Mountain mainly on the subject of the Jesus Prayer: <em>"Lord Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on me". </em>It is an aid to all who wish to practice the Jesus Prayer and makes clear how essential this Prayer is in our life. In a systematic and simple way it explains that before the Fall prayer was done effortlessly like the unending glorification of the angels but since the Fall struggle and effort have been required. Great attention and watchfulness are needed in order for the believer’s nous to remain in God. As he replies to the writer’s questions the hermit who has seen God explains how man’s nous enters the heart and there prayer acts automatically. This is called noetic prayer or prayer of the heart. There is an account of the <em>"Stages of the Jesus Prayer"</em> of how in other words this sacred work of prayer unfolds. The ways in which it differs from intellectual prayer and from Yoga and other Eastern religious methods are emphasized. Explanations are given of "The Advent and Withdrawal of Grace" and "The Fruits of the Jesus Prayer" which are the unification of the whole of man divine consolation and blessedness in the midst of life’s trials. We are informed of the dangers and delusions which are likely to arise in the course of the Jesus Prayer with reference to tears psychological methods and the complex warfare waged by the devil to hinder the person praying from doing this work of prayer. Emphasis is laid on the supreme importance and value of obedience to a spiritual father and guide in order to avoid delusion. Through studying the whole discussion we come to understand what the passions are and how essential it is that we struggle to purify our soul from them and acquire an awareness of our sinfulness. There is nothing mechanical about the teaching on noetic prayer; rather it is linked with the method by which a person is cured. As man lives through the three stages of the spiritual life namely purification of the heart illumination of the nous and deification he is united with the Tribune God because it is purification from the passions which will bring enlightenment and union with God. The basic prerequisite for attracting God’s grace and mercy is for us to remember the name of God in an atmosphere of repentance and humility and participate in the mysteries of the Church particularly the sacrament of the Divine Eucharist. According to the Fathers the Jesus Prayer is the greatest science and conceals within it all the theology of the Orthodox Church. It is not a work just for monks and nuns but is indispensable for the Clergy and laypeople living in the world.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>===================================================</p><p><strong>IMPORTANT: The shipping cost in not included in the price.

‎Entering the Orthodox Church‎

‎<p>Levadea: Birth of the Theotocos Monastery 2006. Brand new. In English. Soft cover 20 cm 204 pp.; net weight 300 gr. ISBN: 978-960-7070-52-4.</p><p>This book is an important contribution to the pastoral care of those entering the Orthodox Church. After an introductory section on catechetical instruction in the Orthodox tradition the first seven ‘Catechisms’ set out in the book draw upon the parable of the prodigal son. For each ‘lesson’ there is an outline followed by a discussion of what the selected aspect of the parable – for instance the behaviour of the elder son – can teach us. The remaining nine Catechisms are based on the Creed looking first at the Creed as a whole and then at the individual articles. Each Catechism is followed by questions and answers on all the points covered to make sure everything has been understood. After a chapter on the service in which the Sacrament of Baptism takes place the book concludes with an essential reminder about the need for spiritual guidance for those recently baptised. This is a very valuable and practical handbook and has proved extremely popular.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>===================================================</p><p><strong>IMPORTANT: The shipping cost in not included in the price.

‎Orthodox Spirituality - A Brief Introduction‎

‎<p>Levadea: Birth of the Theotocos Monastery 1998. Brand new. In English. 6th ed. soft cover 22 cm 104 pp.; net weight 160 gr. ISBN: 978-960-7070-20-3.</p><p>This is the second book in the series<em> "Theoria and Praxis"</em> published by the Apostolic Ministry of the Church of Greece. It acquaints us with basic themes connected with Orthodox faith and Christian life. The key elements of Orthodox spirituality are defined and we are introduced to the realm of Orthodox Tradition. At the beginning of this slim volume we are given a definition of the terms "Orthodox" and "Spirituality" It is pointed out that Orthodox spirituality is Christ-centred Holy Trinity-centred and ecclesiastical In addition it is both sacramental and ascetic because throughout the entire tradition of the Church there is an inseparable link between the sacraments and asceticism We are shown the "Differences between Orthodox Spirituality and other Traditions" The basic difference is primarily in doctrinal teaching but also in the approach and method used for curing people The terms "nous" and "heart" are analysed and "The Core of Orthodox Spirituality" is defined as being the heart within which the nous should function naturally Reference is made to "Degrees of Spiritual Perfection" which are: purification of the soul illumination of the nous and deification There is an explanation of the terms Praxis which is purification of the heart and Theoria which means illumination of the nous and the vision of uncreated Light It is noted that there is no division in Orthodox spirituality between "Neptic and Social Theology" just as there is no clear distinction between monks and married people As the reader studies this small volume he will realise that issues relating to spiritual life are examined in a brief and general way without the author embarking on a full and detailed analysis Nevertheless it clearly makes the point that the Orthodox Church is a spiritual hospital which cures people and guides them into communion and union with God</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>===================================================</p><p><strong>IMPORTANT: The shipping cost in not included in the price.

‎St. Gregory Palamas as a Hagiorite 2nd ed.‎

‎<p>In English. Soft cover 22 cm 400 pp. ISBN: 960-7070-37-2.</p><p>Presents the life work and teaching of St. Gregory Palamas as they relate to his identity as a monk of the Holy Mountain. In the consciousness of the Church as a whole St. Gregory Palamas Archbishop of Thessaloniki is not just a great Father of the Church and an Ecumenical Teacher but belongs to the company of the Three Hierarchs and the three great Theologians of the Church as "The Fourth Hierarch and Theologian". Drawing on information provided by St. Philotheos St. Gregory's biographer the author describes the Saint’s life from childhood before he moved to the Holy Mountain. Subsequently we see the Saint as monk priest Abbott and Metropolitan and it is stressed that he was a true Hagiorite not only because he stayed on the Holy Mountain but because he lived the life of the Holy Mountain. We learn about the Saint’s gifts and virtues but also his temptations which he regarded as a special blessing from God. The Saint's teaching is an expression of the life which he encountered on the Holy Mountain that is to say the hesychastic way of life which is the essence of the Orthodox tradition. The core of the Saint's teaching can be found in his dispute with the speculative philosopher Barlaam. He overturned Barlaam’s erroneous views and laid down the theological conditions for noetic prayer. He demonstrated that noetic prayer is found in the tradition of the Church and is not just the prerogative of monks but can be practised by all Christians. By setting out in theological terms the value of fasting vigil tears and compunction and also analysing the importance of the senses during the practice of noetic prayer he teaches us that the body cannot be overlooked in man’s effort to be purified. In fact he explains that the grace of God acts in the soul and from there is carried over into the body as well.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>==============================================================</p><p><b>IMPORTANT: The price does NOT include the shipping cost which depends on actual weight and destination.

‎The Mind of the Orthodox Church‎

‎<p>Levadea: Birth of the Theotocos Monastery 2005. Brand new. In English. Third edition. Soft cover 22 cm 240 pp.; net weight 390 gr. ISBN: 978-960-7070-39-9.</p><p>The author examines what the Church is and what the real dimensions of the mind of the Church are At the beginning of the book the chapters "Origin and Revelation of the Church" and "Definition and Characteristics of the Church" emphasise that the Church is not a human organisation but a Divine-Human Organism It is the Body of Christ and a "communion of deification" The source of the Church is God Himself The characteristics of the Church One Holy Catholic Apostolic are analysed as well as the aim of the Church which is man’s deification and salvation An explanation is given of who the real members of the Church are In the chapter on "Orthodoxy according to the Holy Fathers" it is made clear that Orthodoxy is the true faith and the real Church because only within the Church is the salvation of man made sure The unity between the Church Orthodoxy and the divine Eucharist is underlined since the holy Fathers stress that Orthodoxy is the true faith of the Church and the divine Eucharist is the true action of the Church The chapter entitled "The Church and the Divine Eucharist according to St Maximos the Confessor" looks in detail at the teaching of St Maximos on the Church and the Divine Eucharist in a work of his called "Mystagogy" The divine Eucharist points to the whole work of the divine Economy and signifies the soul’s journey to acquiring true knowledge Within the Holy Temple the Church building and the divine Eucharist Christians have the living experience of the unity of the Church Reading the chapter on "The Mind of the Orthodox Church" makes us aware that this way of thinking is inspired by the Holy Spirit and is linked with the regenerated life which is experienced in the heart Reference is made to the characteristics of the Orthodox ekklesiastical mind as recorded by St Paul in his Epistles The chapter on "The Catholic Way of Life" can be seen as especially significant It points out that a catholic man is one who recognises the truth Orthodox and lives the truth righteous It examines the fact that there are no splits within the Church nor are there different categories of people but one catholic way of life which can be experienced by all the Church’s members for each person is created by God in His image and likeness In the chapter "Orthodoxy and Legalism" the Orthodox viewpoint is set out: the Church accepts neither antinomianism nor legalism in the spiritual life Our relationship with God is personal ekklesiastical and not juridical Sin is regarded as an illness of the soul and is not placed in a legal framework The difference between Papism and Orthodoxy is made clear because in the Latin Church more legalism in experienced in both theology and life whereas in the Orthodox Church we keep the law with the aim of living the spirit of the law because the law is not an end in itself but a necessary means to man’s healing It is worth paying particular attention to the chapter on "Secularism in the Church Theology and Pastoral Care" which stresses that when the Church loses its main objective to cure its members it becomes secular The secularisation of the members of the Church is regarded as the gravest danger in our time Many people today see the Church as a religious or social organisation or as an ideological or even magic place and as a result they remain unhealed The Church is the spiritual hospital which heals man and leads him to deification which is the fundamental purpose for which he was created At the end of the book we can study the chapter on the "Synodikon of Orthodoxy" This is a concise sacred text which sums up the Orthodox teaching of the Church The "Synodikon of Orthodoxy" expresses the teaching of Orthodox faith and life and the ethos and mind of the Church which are linked to and in harmony with the decisions of the Fathers of the Church as expressed with conciliar authority Reference is made to the distinguishing marks which characterise the Ecumenical Councils and differentiate them from Local Councils.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>.</p><p>===================================================</p><p><strong>IMPORTANT: The shipping cost in not included in the price.

‎De Renan à Marrou. L'histoire du christianisme et les progrès de la méthode historique (1863-1968).‎

‎Presses Universitaires du Septentrion, série histoire, 1999. In-8°, br. couverture rempliée glacée ill. 262 pages. Bon état. Epuisé.‎

‎Ce livre propose une réflexion sur les relations entre l'histoire du christianisme saisie dans ses origines et les progrès de la méthode historique au cours d'un siècle (1863-1968); il contient un hommage à la mémoire d'un éminent historien, Henri-Irénée Marrou, maître inégalé dans les domaines de l'Antiquité tardive et de la théologie de l'histoire, à l'occasion du XXe anniversaire de sa disparition. Après une réflexion initiale d'Emile Poulat sur la lecture de la Bible, les progrès de la méthode historique appliqués à l'exégèse sont suivis depuis Renan jusqu'au modernisme représenté ici par Harnack, Loisy et Guignebert. La critique de l'historicisme par Maurice Blondel annonce la sortie du modernisme marquée par les réflexions et les travaux de Raymond Aron et d'Henri-Irénée Marrou dont l'ouvrage De la connaissance historique permet une approche renouvelée de l'histoire des origines du christianisme. Enfin le grand essai d'Henri-Irénée Marrou sur une Théologie de l'Histoire inspirée de saint Augustin et de la culture contemporaine, qui se trouve commenté ici par André Mandouze, illustre bien le génie d'un homme qui était à la fois historien, musicologue, philosophe et théologien.
