Made Perfect in Faith: Sermons on the Lives and Works of Fifty Holy Church Fathers

In this homiliary, Father James Thornton introduces fifty of the greatest Fathers of the Orthodox Church. Eschewing the dry language of history and the recondite language of theology alike, Father James opts to present his subjects in the pious language of hagiography. He thus renders the Church Fathers immediately accessible to all, challenging us to ask ourselves about them, in our own spiritual lives: "Seest thou how faith wrought with...[their]...works, and by works was faith made perfect?"
