The book "Cry of the Heart" is an extensive and multifaceted diary of Metropolitan John (Snychev). Line by line, Metropolitan Ioann (Snychev) recorded the events of the day: in which diocesan church he served, how the service went, how the choir sang, how the priesthood served, who came to the reception. But out of thousands of pages, the publishers selected for publication only those records that reflect the spiritual and mental experiences of the archpastor. This is a penitential lament about his own sinfulness. And pain for the unrighteous deeds of his clergy, priesthood and flock. And bitterness from the disorder within the church life. And - the unearthly joys with which Christ Himself comforted His minister.
The pages of the book mention Vladyka John's relationship with Metropolitan Manuel (Lemeshevsky), his meetings with Patriarch Alexis (Simansky), future Patriarchs Pimen (Izvekov), Alexis (Ridiger) and Kirill (Gundyaev), Archpastors Nikodim (Rotov), Pitirim (Nechaev), Filaret (Vakhromeev), Filaret (Denisenko), Yuvenaly (Poyarkov), Pavel (Golyshev), Cyprian (Zernov), Anthony (Melnikov), Nikolai (Theodosiev), Theodosius (Pogorsky), and many others.
