Author: Priest Daniil Sysoev Publisher: Missionary Center named after Priest Daniil Sysoev , 2013.
You need to know the enemy by sight. Passions and those who help to root them are the seed of the enemy. The struggle with this seed lasts a lifetime; the one who calls on God wins it.

But how do you know the tactics of fighting? Using the experience of the Church and the works of the holy fathers, priest Daniil Sysoev explains the mechanisms of action of sin in the human soul and the technique of combating it. This book will encourage everyone to think about the need to seriously work on themselves to cleanse their hearts for God.

Time Waits for No Time: A Collection of Stories

Author:
Priest Alexander Dyachenko
“Time Doesn’t Wait” is a new collection of stories by priest Alexander Dyachenko. Again and again, in his stories about people, he returns to eternal themes: sinfulness and repentance, cruelty and mercy, acquisitiveness and non-acquisitiveness, gratitude and indifference. Revealing to us another story of insight or fall, with the sensitivity and depth of an experienced loving spiritual shepherd, he shows the reader how the Lord acts in arranging human destinies. At the same time, there is no moral teaching or condemnation in his stories. Only sadness and contrition about our foolishness and deafness. And one more thing: in the stories of Father Alexander, the motivation for choice and spiritual vigor sounds more and more confidently. It’s as if the priest is saying, addressing all of us: “Decide to follow Christ, bear your cross—time is running out!”

“Through the prayers of the saints our fathers...” Conversations on the ancient patericon

Author: Archpriest Andrei Lemeshonok Publisher: St. Elisabeth Monastery, Minsk, 2012.
A new collection of conversations by the confessor of the Minsk St. Elisabeth Monastery, Archpriest Andrei Lemeshonok, talks about examples from the life of ancient ascetics of Orthodoxy. The book is based on the texts of radio broadcasts about ancient patericon (biographies of holy elders), with which Father Andrei regularly appeared on air from 2003 to 2005. Having received a blessing many years ago to preach the Word of God, Father Andrei in his conversations speaks about the love of God, about the beauty and purity of Orthodoxy and about the greatest spiritual benefit that a modern person can derive for himself from reading the ancient patericons and the “Fatherism” compiled by the saint Ignatius (Brianchaninov). In simple and intelligible words, the priest explains the deep spiritual meaning of some of the sayings and actions of the Holy Fathers. The book continues the “Word of the Confessor” series, already familiar to our readers.
