The Illumined Heart


Lenten Book Study

At The Church of the Holy Spirit in Bellmawr and at St. Luke's in Westville, we are studying a book during Lent that will be incorporated into my sermons throughout the season. It is called The Illumined Heart (Paraclete Press: 2001) by Frederica Mathewes-Green. The publisher also offers a small study guide to accompany the book. I love the simple, narrative method of introducing contemporary western Christians to the ancient practices of eastern orthodoxy. There is much to learn here about leading a life of prayer in close fellowship with our Lord Jesus Christ. I hope that it will be inspiring and enlightening to many.
