I'm not currently reading this as it's a pre-order, but I wanted to throw it out there so folks here had an opportunity to buy one if they'd like as I believe there's a limited number of them made of 2,000.

The Anthologion Published by Saint Ignatius Orthodox Press

More on topic I'm finishing up Acts, along with the Gerontikon, and I have the Athonite Gerontikon coming from Greece. I'm very much looking forward to receiving that one as it's becoming rarer to find a copy of it.

I'm eagerly awaiting my copy :) My Godpapa and I put money into this when it was first announced so we are getting 3 copies - 1 for each of us and the third is for a friend of his. My Latvian pal has ordered one now .

GodPapa and I have copies of their Apostol . Our Anthologions arrived in the UK last week - tracking info was useless :(

Very cool! I saw it, and I thought it was easily worth what they were asking at 1024 pages. I'm glad to hear that the book is being published. If I'm not mistaken it wouldn't have happened without the funding beforehand so it's awesome to hear that it's working out. Glory to God!

To show how bad the tracking info is - according to it our copies are still in the USA and have not yet got to O'Hare Airport for shipping to the UK :D

God Papa says you need a big pocket for it :D - it's advertised as being pocket sized :D

I won't see mine till the end of September when my GodPapa comes up to stay with me for a few days

Despite the poor tracking I'm glad it arrived safely. I'll be curious to hear what you think of it once you get it! :)

oh I'm really looking forward to the arrival [ as is my big Latvian pal ]

There's more in it than I need but there are times when I could do with doing more than I do at present. Since we had already planned that GodPapa was coming up to see me in September and his work hours are not good for getting to Post Offices , we decided he would just hand deliver my copy :)

Just started Arise O God by Andrew Stephen Damick last night. It seems really good from a catechumen perspective.

I’m awaiting my copy. It was supposed to be here Monday, but I think I’ll have it tomorrow.

I really enjoyed it! I finished it in one day though. It was one of those books that I didn’t want to end.

Christianity and Classical Culture: The Metamorphosis of Natural Theology in the Christian Encounter with Hellenism by Jaroslav Pelikan

It is from his Gifford Lectures on Natural Theology 1992-1993. It's a fascinating and sympathetic read of the Cappadocians Fathers.

I picked up a copy of My Life in Christ this week. I’m enjoying it immensely. If you don’t know it’s segments of the teaching and wisdom of St. John of Kronstadt.

I found this one at my church library this week.
