Description: Asceticism and the Eucharist by Maxym Lysack An outstanding exploration of Orthodox spirituality centering on the key themes of the Eucharist and asceticism. Fr Maxym Lysack recruits the teachings of the celebrated Orthodox theologian John Zizioulas as our guide on this journey, sometimes critiquing him, often affirming him, and always allowing him to be a point of reference in the study. FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Guided by the teachings of celebrated Orthodox theologian Metropolitan John Zizioulas, this outstanding volume by Maxym Lysack demonstrates the twin importance to Orthodox spiritual theology of asceticism (usually practised as a personal discipline) and the Eucharist (the corporate celebration that makes us one with God as Church), and also the essential complementarity of the two approaches. Author Biography Maxym Lysack is an Orthodox priest of a multi-cultural parish in downtown Ottawa, Canada and Adjunct Professor of Eastern Christian Studies at Saint Paul University. Review A sparkling (and challenging!) introduction to Orthodox spiritual theology seen through the lens of contemporary Orthodox theology. It provides an essential intervention in the current debate among scholars concerning the contours of Orthodox spiritual theology. More than that, it is pastorally useful for instruction of the faithful, calling us to celebrate the "liturgy of the Eucharist" and the "liturgy of the heart," without playing off one against the other. -- Edith M. Humphrey, PhD Asceticism and the Eucharist is particularly valuable to the current theological dialogue and rapprochement of Eastern and Western Christians. -- Protopresbyter George Dion Dragas, PhD, DD, DTh The book is insightful, soberly critical, dialogical and transformative. A highly valuable theological reading. -- Stoyan Tanev, PhD (Physics), PhD (Theology) Details ISBN1913657884 Author Maxym Lysack Pages 256 ISBN-10 1913657884 ISBN-13 9781913657888 Format Hardcover Year 2024 Publication Date 2024-01-31 UK Release Date 2024-01-31 Publisher Darton, Longman & Todd Ltd Imprint Darton, Longman & Todd Ltd Place of Publication London Country of Publication United Kingdom Audience General DEWEY 230.19 Subtitle Exploring Orthodox Spirituality with Metropolitan John Zizioulas AU Release Date 2024-07-07 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
