A Life Together: Wisdom of Community from the Christian East

Bishop Seraphim Sigrist

“What if humanity came together in the light and spirit poured out at Pentecost? Would it not be possible to become of one heart and mind and to discover a unity? Can we live together, and together touch the Divine?”

Writing in the ancient desert tradition of short meditations on a spiritual theme, Bishop Seraphim explores what community means and how unity between human beings is truly possible. With insight drawn from Fr. Alexander Men and other theologians of the Orthodox tradition, as well as his own long-term involvement in supporting religious communities in Russia and America, he offers his readers a cultured and complex weave of Christian insight. 'A Life Together' is a wonderful resource for reflection: a private retreat with an experienced spiritual father.
