M. : Sretensky Monastery Publishing House: OLMA Media Group, 2012. — 640 s. One ascetic once said that every Orthodox Christian can tell his Gospel, his Joyful News of meeting with God. No one compares such evidence with the books of the apostles, who saw with their own eyes the Son of God, who lived on earth. Yet we, though weak, are sinners, but His disciples, and there is nothing more beautiful in the world than to contemplate the amazing actions of the Saviour’s Providence about our world. The book of Archimandrite Tikhon (in the world - Georgy Shevkunov), is a collection of real stories, sometimes sad, sometimes funny, sometimes touching. The author does not seek to idealize his characters, however, their humanity, spirituality, warmth - these qualities are extremely important to the writer. It is not for nothing that these stories are used by Father Tikhon in sermons and conversations. Despite the fact that the book is about people “who came to the monastery”, it will interest not only readers of different beliefs and confessions, but also just secular people.
