Beskrivelse
Brother Victor-Antoine explores the absolute centrality of Christ in the prayer life of any Christian. The end result is a comprehensive confession of his faith and testimony to the many 'names of Christ' that cross through historical, monastic, and mystical traditions. Keeping true to the hope for a unified Church, Christ the Merciful incorporates both Western and Eastern Orthodox sources. Chapters situating Christ in context of his life in Palestine, his role as a son, friend, and family member, and his place in the living history of the church all help to create a full, well-rounded portrait of his divine and human lives. By viewing Christ through these various facets, the book helps readers enrich their relationship to the mystery of God, adding contour to their spiritual journey. Scholars, clergy, and lay religious alike will be inspired and informed by Brother Victor-Antoine's ability to present difficult concepts in a clear, straightforward manner, informed by years of monastic practice.
