About the book: 2017 / This book is a wonderful introduction to Christian doctrine, prayer and worship. It amazes with its depth and at the same time is addressed to the simplest reader, Orthodox or not, even an unbeliever, and introduces him to the very core of Orthodox life. What does faith give a person? Who is God and how does the Orthodox Church understand Him? How can God be one and three at the same time? What is the Orthodox teaching about man? What is the significance of Jesus Christ? Why are the Church and the sacraments needed? What is the meaning of death and what awaits a person after death? This book answers these and many other questions..
