Lent has arrived. Readings for each day of Great Lent.
29.99 €
We offer you a unique publication, which contains texts for spiritually beneficial reading during the days of Great Lent. The book is compiled with an orientation towards the ancient Orthodox tradition, according to which the Gospel and the Apostle are excluded from weekday services and from daily reading in general during the period of Holy Lent. Instead, the church charter offers believers the teachings of the great ascetic teachers of antiquity (St. Ephraim the Syrian, St. Theodore the Studite, etc.), the "Ladder" of St. John Climacus, as well as "Lavsaik" of Bishop Palladius - a collection of lives of ancient saints who especially pleased the Lord with their fasting, abstinence, and love for God and neighbors. This structure of reading is also a kind of spiritual fast, symbolizing our unworthiness, the desire for repentance and the ardent expectation of the joyful news of the Resurrection of the Savior. This is one of the most important aspects of preparation for the feast of Easter, a preparation that constitutes the main goal of Lent. The book is supplemented by sermons and words of saints close to us in time, new martyrs, outstanding pastors of our time and the recent past, who reveal various aspects of true Christian doctrine against the background of Lenten ascetic work, show the true meaning of Orthodoxy, its mission in the modern "post-Christian", sin-infected world.
