Father Spyridon explores Orthodox faith and practice that is both
ancient and alive. He reveals how Orthodoxy is the continuing
revelation of God to man.This is a book that will inspire and
challenge in equal measure.
The Ancient Path is a call for twentieth century man to rediscover
authentic Christianity. Fr. Spyridon highlights the gulf that
exists between modern thinking and the belief and practices of the
Early Church. It is a call to abandon the illusions of modern
philosophy to return to the one path that leads to Christ. Rich
with quotations from the Church Fathers each chapter deals with a
separate issue, covering the saints, love, family, repentance,
theosis and many more. In a book that pulls no punches Fr. Spyridon
reveals how Orthodoxy is the living continuation of the faith given
by Christ to the Apostles.
Father Spyridon presents a challenge and a warning to all
Christians about the growth of the kingdom of Satan. He points
first to the signs of this growing kingdom before explaining how we
are each attacked and manipulated by evil powers that have
corrupted our world. The looming threat of a one world government
is presented by this Orthodox priest with a mixture of soberness
and urgency.
In what at first seems a chance meeting with an Orthodox monk, a
young couple find themselves drawn deeply into the world of ancient
mysticism and the authentic Christian truth. Over a period of forty
years they find many of their assumptions about the Christian faith
are challenged as they learn to hear the voice of the early Church
still speaking in the twenty-first century.
Father Spyridon invites the reader to confront the reality of their
own death. Through the ancient truths of the Orthodox Church he
demonstrates how only when we have a true understanding of death
can we begin to discover and live out the purpose of our existence.
He dispels many modern myths concerning purgatory, the rapture,
judgement, the soul, heaven and hell, angels and many more. Though
deeply spiritual, Trampling Down Death By Death offers a pragmatic
approach to the reality of our mortality.
Extending out from Northern Greece into the Aegean Sea are three
peninsulas, one of which, Mount Athos, has been a monastic republic
for over a thousand years. A pilgrimage to the Holy Mountain is a
journey to the heart of Orthodox monasticism, and Father Spyridon
takes us with him to hear words of ancient wisdom that may lead us
into a deeper sense of God's presence. Father Ioakeim Oureilidis
writes "This book is primarily a spiritual invitation through this
paper object, that our Holy Mary, our Panagia, making good use of
Fr Spyridon's skills and talents, extends to us all to visit her
earthly home, the Holy Mountain, in order to be rejuvenated through
faith and communication with the praying fathers and her grace."
