If Christians are supposed to be temples of the Holy Spirit, why do so many of us feel more like condemned buildings than sacred sanctuaries? Why do we carry wounds from childhood, battle feelings of worthlessness, wrestle with depression, struggle with temptation, and wonder if God can really use people whose lives seem held together with duct tape and a desperate prayer?

The book was a sensation. It was also, this book argues, a catastrophe of comprehension—and not a unique one.

Few figures in the modern history of the Christian East have stirred as much devotion and as much suspicion as Father Alexander Men. A priest who labored in the long shadow of a hostile state, he opened the doors of the Church to a generation raised without it, and he was struck down on the road to the altar by an assassin who was never found.
