This slim but richly insightful guide to the pinnacle of Orthodox Christian worship, by Fr. Steven Kostoff, pastor of Christ the Savior-Holy Spirit Church in Cincinnati, Ohio (OCA, Midwest Diocese), expresses the renewal of liturgical theology set forth by Protopresbyter Alexander Schmemann, who defined it as “the elucidation of the meaning of worship.”
Uniting scripture, theology and doxology with a practical discussion of the many facets of our liturgical actions, Fr. Steven helps us understand and enter into the heart of worship as “the revelation and expression of our Orthodox Faith.”
Seekers, catechumens and Orthodox faithful alike will be blessed by this trustworthy and inspiring guide to the Divine Liturgy and the Life in Christ, composed by a faithful presbyter of the Orthodox Church in America.
This Third Edition features a new Epilogue by the author, ‘Great Vespers & Christian Martyria’, and a new special article, ‘Eucharistic Beings’.
