Spiritual Instruction and Discourses, Vol. 1: The Authentic Seal
By Archimandrite Aemilianos of Simonopetra
From the inside cover:
With the eye of our mind, let us see the King for whom we sinners opened the way, and let us say with the Psalmist: "Come, let us worship and fall down before him and cry to the Lord...for He is our God" (Ps 94:6-7). Let us open the depths of our heart to the Lord, Who is present here with us, and let us advance more each and every day, so that we will be able to discover everything that God, our Redeemer, has done for us. – from "Our Church Attendance: Reflections on the Divine Liturgy of St. James
From the Back Cover:
The works collected in the present volume reflect the importance which the Elder [Aemilianos] consistently attach[es] to prayer, spirituality, community life, worship and liturgy. The experientially-based works "On Prayer" and "The Prayer of the Holy Mountain," which deal primarily with the Prayer of the Heart, appear first, followed by the addresses "The Divine Liturgy" and "Our Church Attendance." These are in turn followed by the more socially-oriented discourses "Our Relations With Our Neighbor" and "Marriage: The Great Sacrament." Finally, this volume closes with the sermons "Spiritual Reading" and "The Spiritual Life," which in a simple and yet compelling manner set forth the conditions for "ascending to heaven on the wings of the Spirit." It is our hope that The Church at Prayer will serve as a ready aid and support for those who desire God and eternal life in Him.
