-- author of The Fragrance of God
"These magnificent homilies are not just richly scriptural. The
poetry of Orthodox hymnody runs through them, and they are
companionate with the great festal iconography of the Church. We
are fortunate that Sergius Bulgakov distilled the profound
theological insights of his great works into these illuminating
orations that will inspire Christians in all walks of life." Church
Times
"This short volume of sermons is both a profound devotional work of
great depth and beauty, and also an accessible introduction to the
work of a great theologian." Catholic Library World
"A spending collection of Orthodox teaching. . . . A welcome
addition to any Christian library." Logos: A Journal of Eastern
Christian Studies
"This book will be valuable not only to Bulgakov scholars but also
to anybody seeking to understand the spirit of Christianity."
Canadian Slavonic Papers
