"[These] stories begin to paint a new kind of icon, that of a truly American Orthodox Christian, of regular people simply trying to be or tragically rejecting being regular human beings, the kind of people, perhaps, never even imagined by most American readers. The stories break the mold of what a religious or nonreligious story ought to be. They are not moralistic, nor are they irreverent in their honest portrayal of the realities of life in the Church. Rather, they are just good, honest stories, and in being this they are sacramental, conveying and holding together elements of life that are seemingly disparate." (from the Foreword)

Sometimes poignant, sometimes funny, sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes convicting, these stories of life in an inner-city immigrant Orthodox parish are guaranteed to shake your assumptions and make you see your life and faith in a new way.

They are not for the faint of heart, but they are very much for all who want to embrace the truth more fully!

I rarely leave reviews (as I'm ridiculously lazy),but this one deserved the effort. Fantastic.

Incredibly moving... Well worth a listen.

This book has a modernist humanistic approach foreign to true Orthodoxy. it introduced gradually the idea of pews in church, men and women standing on the same side of the church etc.

If you are a Traditional Orthodox Christian, this book is not for you
