  • The Tools of Spiritual Warfare
    The Tools of Spiritual Warfare $20

    Fr. Hopko’s Introduction describes Joy’s book as a powerfully dynamic description of how we can participate in Christ’s victory over the devil, darkness, disease and death. She describes in detail the many tools (eleven in number) that Christ provides for us to be not victims but “overcomers,” describing in detail what St. Paul calls, “the whole armor of God.” She is constrained to expose and analyze, in starkest and most vivid detail, our ceaseless warfare with the devil and his evil angels, as she describes the powerful arsenal God makes available to us that we may share forever in Christ’s invincible victory.

    Financial problems, sickness, prison, divorce and death- The list of things that seem to be able to harm us are endless.

Stephen Powley, will take the readers even further in thinking through the words of St. John Chrysostom.

  • Orthodox Catechism Book and Workbook
    Orthodox Catechism Book and Workbook $20

    These books work together to instruct the basics of Orthodox Christian belief and Orthodox Christian living. “What is a catechism?” you may ask. Catechism comes from a Greek word meaning “to teach or inform.” Saint Luke’s Gospel was written in order to confirm to Theophilus “the things of which you have been informed” (Luke 1:4). The Bible text primarily used in the lessons is the Revised Standard Version with Apocrypha. The Apocryphal books were used by the early Church and are still used by the Orthodox Church.
