Монография доктора исторических наук, профессора кафедры церковной истории Санкт-Петербургской духовной академии Андрея Юрьевича Митрофанова посвящена развитию и эволюции института церковных Соборов в Италии в эпоху поздней римской империи IV-V веков. В условиях, когда императорская власть ослабла, а германские и алано-сарматские племена и гунны регулярно вторгались во внутренние провинции римской империи, христианские епископы часто играли ключевую роль в управлении муниципиев, а церковные...

The season of Advent provides an opportunity for spiritual renewal for followers of Christ. But often what happens is that we get so caught up in the hurry and rush, the hustle and bustle, the frantic pace of the season that we emerge more spiritually exhausted than refreshed and more disillusioned than inspired to face the coming of a new year. We may have tried so hard to enjoy the holiday season, to recapture a sense of wonder and mystery, only to end up asking, «Is that all there is?» The...

Christmas – the very word conjures up memories of the most wondrous childhood holiday of all–filled with the glitter of colorfully-wrapped presents, family visits, carols, photographs, decorating the tree, attendance at church to celebrate the birth of the Christ child, and tummy-stuffing dinners tucked with treats seen at no other time of the year. But the yule holiday has been celebrated for at least two centuries in North America, and our writers have been producing memorable stories about...

Based on early Christian practice, pilgrims to Jerusalem reconstructed the events of Good Friday along the “Way of Suffering,” the Via Dolorosa. The Spanish nun, Egeria, writes of her own experience with this in her fourth century Holy Week journal. In the Middle Ages, the Franciscans and Dominicans particularly picked up on the ritual, and transported it from Jerusalem to chapels and churches outside the Holy Land. If one could not make the pilgrimage to the place of Jesus’s passion, then the...

“Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me.” This very simple prayer was developed in the deserts of Egypt and Palestine during the early centuries of Christian faith, and has been practiced in the Eastern Orthodox Church ever since. It is a prayer inspired by St. Paul’s exhortation to “pray constantly” (1 Thessalonians 5:17), and its purpose is to tune one’s inner attention to the presence of the Lord. This series of “little books” is designed to enable you to grasp the meaning of...

Jean de Joinville (1224-1317) inherited the office of...

In this age of sensory overload, more than ever we seek out simplicity—a still pond, quiet space to meditate, the solid stable comforts that are so elusive. Creative leaders through the centuries have understood that simple beauty is one of the highest goals. Albert Einstein said, «Out of clutter, find simplicity. From discord, find harmony. In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.» But as the Apple slogan used to say: Simple is hard. With the frustration of always feeling 'plugged...

Достоевский – один из самых сложных для понимания русских писателей. Как никто другой, он заставляет читателя думать, ставя вопросы и не давая на них прямые ответы. И Евангелие – один из ключей, при помощи которых открывается миросозерцание Достоевского. А сочинения Достоевского могут для кого-то стать ключом к открытию для себя Евангелия. Название новой книги митрополита Илариона – «Евангелие Достоевского» – имеет двойной смысл. Речь в ней пойдет не только о том Евангелии, которое всю жизнь...
