"Заключи в сокровищницах твоих милостыню и пост." Из творений свт. Иоанна Златоуста.
$2.00
Узок путь в жизнь вечную, много требуется терпения духовного усердия, чтобы побороть свои страсти и научиться добродетели. Но есть среди добродетелей одна – самая простая, доступная любому возрасту и положению, но самая велика. Без нее все подвиги – ничто, а с ней и малые возносят к Небесам, это добродетель милостыни. О ней – слово святителя Иоанна Златоуста.

В настоящий сборник вошли проповеди известного протоиерея Валериана Кречетова, настоятеля храма Покрова Божией Матери села Акулова, записанные в последние несколько лет, где особое внимание батюшка уделяет духовной борьбе. Как устоять в этой брани, которая непрестанно ведется в сердце человека? В тексте сохранены особенности стиля устной речи батюшки.
Содержание:
От составителей
«Бдите и молитесь!» о важности родства в духе
О твердости веры и житейском море
Духовная жизнь — она во всем, что происходит
Нам дана жизнь, чтобы сделать выбор
О целомудрии
О невидимой брани
«Войди в клеть сердца своего…» блюдите свое сердце от нечистоты!
«В терпении вашем стяжите души ваша…» невидимый мир постоянно Заботится о нас
Об истинном смысле жизни
Для спасения нужен подвиг
О внутренней решимости
«По вере вашей да будет вам…»
«Держи ум во аде и не отчаивайся…»

Author: Kopyttseva, Natalia Mikhailovna
Form: Paperback

This book is the ideal companion to the previously published Champion of Good: The Life of Father Ilarion (Holy Trinity Publications, Jordanville, 2011). All who have already encountered Father Ilarion through his life will be equally engaged by his words. Those who meet him first through his preaching will want to go on to read his life. Together, they convey a potent message of the possibilities that open to the human soul that turns to God with singleness of mind and humility. The sermons are grouped by subjects. One index lists the sermons in church calendar order and the other index lists the sermons in chronological order for those who wish to see what was preached in an historical context.

A Champion of Good: The Life of Father Ilarion
$20.00
Author: Kopyttseva, Natalia Mikhailovna
Form: Paperback
Pages: 216
In Father I saw a person who lived for God…. In all life’s situations, Fr Ilarion maintained a grace-imbued state of spirit, the fruits of which were love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and the other virtues that made it impossible to be near him and not feel glad just to be alive.
Many lovers of literature are familiar, through Dostoyevsky’s works, with the concept of the Russian "Staretz," or spiritual elder. This biography offers a vivid portrayal of an authentic Staretz of our own day, Father Ilarion—a monk of the renowned Glinsk hermitage in modern-day Ukraine, who spent much of his life as a parish priest in a village in the Novgorod region of Russia. His life offers a vision of a simple Christian life in the contemporary world that will captivate the reader and awaken or rekindle a desire to live a life centered on the love of God and neighbour rather than on the pursuit of material wealth.
It also presents unique insights into the Orthodox Church in Russia under communism and in the immediate post-communist period, demonstrating how the Faith was kept alive after the closure of so many churches and monasteries and the exile or execution of clergy and believers. The account of the life of the Glinsk hermitage is particularly detailed. With many first hand contributions from Father Ilarion’s spiritual children, this history also provides a glimpse into contemporary Russian culture and religious perspectives.
The book includes an eight page glossy photo insert.

A Little Corner of Paradise
$15.00
The Life and Teachings of Elder Paisius of Sihla.
Elder Paisius (Olaru) of Sihla (1897–1990) was one of the most beloved spiritual fathers of Romania in recent times. In his youth he lived a life of prayer and service, learning from an older generation of spiritual giants. After World War II he moved to Sihăstria Monastery, where his spiritual son, Elder Cleopa, had recently become abbot. It was there that he became renowned for his spiritual wisdom and discernment, confessing the monks and laymen who came to the monastery. Eventually he moved to the nearby Sihla Skete, where he could continue his life of prayer in greater solitude.
Throughout the Communist period, Elder Paisius was a refuge and shelter for those who desired to preserve their faith in those difficult times. Professors and doctors, farmers and factory workers all came to the humble elder to hear words of consolation, encouragement, and direction. A father of love and hope, he focused the gaze of his flock on Christ and His Heavenly Kingdom, expressing the wish that the Lord grant them a “little corner of Paradise.”
Included in the present volume are the life of this remarkable elder, many of his spiritual teachings, recollections of his spiritual children, interviews conducted with him, his letters, and his poetry.
“Prayer is not a theory that one learns in school. The prayer of the heart, that is, prayer made with the awareness of the heart, is a gift of the Holy Spirit…. Whoever loves God with his whole soul, with all his strength and all his heart, will be endowed with the gift of prayer of the heart and the gift of holy tears.”
—Elder Paisius

This exhortation encapsulates the Orthodox Church’s expectations from her clergy and forms the basis of her Pastoral Theology. The aim of the present work is to guide the contemporary Orthodox priest in his application of the Apostle’s words to his everyday life as a conduit of Divine Grace and shepherd of Christ’s flock. At the same time, its focus on the proper formation of the soul will benefit every Christian, whether ordained or not. Compiled from recent and historical sources reflecting the rich heritage of the Russian Orthodox Church.

Akathist of Repentance For One Who Has Aborted a Child
$5.00
This tearful, cleansing lamentation comes from the heart of a believing Orthodox person. With hope, she tenaciously clings to her Saviour with the boldness of one who knows the ultimate greatness of Christ's forgiveness. Not attempting to hide from Christ's gaze the magnitude of her sinful actions, the writer of this akathist fully presents her fallenness to the Lord without leaving unspoken even a trace for which the demons might accuse her at the Last Judgment. And out of the fullness of her repentance, in this liturgical expression of sorrow, she can freely call out: 36 pages.
