A volume of Made Perfect in Faith
“This second volume of sermons on the lives and works of the Holy Church Fathers was delivered at Holy Trinity Eastern Orthodox Church in Oxnard, California[...]. It is my sincere hope that these Lives will inspire those who read them with a renewed fervor for our Orthodox Christian Faith and with the desire to emulate these holy men. As was the case with the first volume, I have been somewhat expansive in my use of the term ‘Church Father,’ passing beyond the usual conventions to include several men who expressed their Christlikeness in ways other than the written word. I have striven also to include men from both East and West, to demonstrate the catholicity of Orthodoxy.”
