Blessed Is the Kingdom: Reflections on the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom
by Fr. Stavros N. Akrotirianakis
People often complain that the Divine Liturgy is always the same, week after week. But every ritual, phrase, and action in the service has meaning and purpose, drawing in worshipers with its hymns and prayers and allowing ordinary people to leave the world and enter heaven for a short time. In this book, Fr. Stavros Akrotirianakis, a longtime parish priest, offers reflections on the text of the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom to help readers learn to pray the Liturgy and to understand and appreciate the mystery that unfolds each time it is celebrated.

In Holy Fools we begin to gain a better understanding of these saints’ curious manner of serving Christ, as we learn about the extraordinary lives of twenty of the most well-known fools for Christ in a series of brief hagiographies.
