Book Reviews of The Way of a Pilgrim and the Pilgrim Continues His Way
Book Review: Praying Unceasingly - the Prayer of the Heart
Summary: 5 Stars
How does one obey the scriptural imperative to "Pray without ceasing?" The simple pilgrim (we learn his background in bits and snatches) sets out to learn how... from both the wise and the simple he meets on the road. In a period and place where a cup of tea is a rare treat and a book one's sole possession, glimpses of disaster and survival, madness and understanding, suffering and joy, simplicity and layers of implications appear with every turn in the road. "Pray, and do not labor much to conquer your passions by your own strength. For 'greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world,' (1 John 4:4), says holy Scripture."
Book Review: A Blessing In Surprising Ways
Summary: 5 Stars
THE WAY OF THE PILGRIM AND THE PILGRIM CONTINUES HIS WAY is a story about the "Jesus Prayer" which has been known and practiced in the Eastern Orthodox Church for a long time.After learning more about the current notoriety of the "Jesus Prayer" from the internet, I am again reading about it solely for its teachings about the subject of prayer in general. The tale of the Russian pilgrim is truly proving to be a blessing to me in surprising ways.
