### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    One of the most potent little books I've ever read.
  

*by C***8 on Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2023*

Love this book. The level of depth for such a small book is worth so much more than many larger books combined. It makes an excellent book to have on your table the rest of your life to pick up and remember the journey to become a human being.

    A beautiful, profound little book
  

*by A***L on Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2014*

This is a beautiful little book, a collage of words and images that speak to the mind, the imagination, the heart.  Clearly this has been a labor of love for the author.  Every word, every citation, every picture and icon has been so carefully chosen and arranged.  Each page is an artistic composition.In these simple meditations (or should I call them poems?), Fr John Behr, Dean of St Vladimir's Orthodox Seminary, speaks to us from the depth of his spiritual experience and patristic erudition to introduce us to what it means to become authentically human in the incarnate Son.  He weaves together citations from the Scriptures, the Church Fathers and ascetics, and liturgical hymnody into a profound reflection on our life in Christ.This is a book to be read slowly and contemplatively, a book to be savored, a book to be prayed.  Life and death.  Birth and rebirth.  Sin and salvation.  Male and Female.  Sinner and Saint.  Everything that is human is brought into the enfleshed and risen Christ---all to the end that we might become human in the God who became Human.Fr John opens his meditations with the famous words of St Irenaeus of Lyons, "The glory of God is a living human being."  He closes his meditations with a simple question, "Are we ready now to live?"

    A beautifully illustrated meditation
  

*by H***I on Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2023*

A beautiful little book. The perfect book to take on a weekend retreat. A meditation on life, love, death and resurrection. Generously illustrated with ancient icons, medieval manuscripts, and some thought provoking contemporary art.
