The heart is the locus of the person- emotional, physical, and
moral. But over and above all these dimensions, the heart is also
the place of spiritual encounter with God. There are many ways to
open one's heart. The heart is opened in those who love, and yet
the heart is injured in those who sorrow. It is a deep well, and he
who plumbs its depths can find spiritual wonders. Since God is
constantly inviting each person to open his heart, he also wishes
to heal those whose hearts have been bruised or injured by the
hardships of life. Drawing freely from the writings of Scripture,
the saints, and even Pascal, the author offers an initiation into
this spirituality of the heart born out of the traditions of
Orthodox Christianity. About the Author: Archpriest Michel
