These six reflections, which meditate upon the sacraments as sources of healing, reveal the wisdom, insight, and wit of Met. Kallistos Ware. He explores the human condition in light of the Orthodox Tradition from many angles: the deep meaning and mystery of the human body and its healing; the somewhat ambiguous role of the passions in our life; the therapeutic vision of the Church expressed in the Mysteries of Confession and Anointing; our experience of healing both in the Divine Liturgy and in the wider world, and, finally, in the great mystery of death itself. It is often said that the Orthodox Church is a hospital and that our understanding of salvation is therapeutic. Here Met. Kallistos explores what this means in many different ways, and helps us to understand more deeply our relationship with Christ the Physician of souls and bodies, who came to save and to heal both us and the world.

Den hellige tradition er det bærende princip i den ortodokse kirke. Kirkefædrenes overleverede erfaringer og tanker udgør grundlaget for kirkens virke og selvforståelse.Troens mysterium forklarer letforståeligt traditionens indflydelse og styrende rolle. Den ortodokse kirkes livsanskuelse er universelliturgisk. Intet af det skabte, synlige eller usynlige, falder udenfor kirkens verden. Kirkens opgave er at fastholde og styrke fællesskabet mellem den himmelske og den jordiske verden via sakramenterne, som er indsvøbt i liturgierne. Gudstjenesten, liturgierne, er udtryk for kirkens inderste væsen, dens liv og lære. Gudstjenestens rum, inventar, ord og handlinger understreger denne opfattelse og lader gudstjenesten fremstå som ét stort symbol på mødet mellem himmel og jord under nøgleordet skønhed.Kirken er en hellig, almindelig, apostolisk kirke, fordi den tilhører hele verden, og fordi hele verden, menneskeheden, elementerne og universet helliggøres ved den.

Evil eye is a phenomenon observed globally and has to do with the misfortune and calamities that we can cause to someone else out of jealousy of their possessions. The book engages with evil eye beliefs in Corfu and investigates the Christian Orthodox influences on the phenomenon and how it affects individuals' reactions to it. Developing an interdisciplinary dialogue, it offers a fresh view of evil eye as a facilitator of wellbeing rather than a generator of calamities.

Both Rome and the Orthodox Church claim to be the Church Christ founded-the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church of the Nicene Creed. How can we judge between these competing claims? This useful and accessible book helps readers to do just that. For those who are seeking a spiritual home, Fr Daniel Daly offers straightforward guidance. For those who are seeking the truth, this book makes a compelling case for the choice of Orthodoxy.
