This is a book of quotes from John Chrysostom's sermons. There are wonderful insights here, and many fabulous quotes on a surprisingly wide range of topics. Unfortunately, all of the passages are printed in isolation, without their context. There is no explanation given, no sermons printed in full, not even a reference to tell you what sermon the passage was pulled from. I understand the affinity that many people have for such "gems of wisdom" books, but I would have appreciated mu More...

More than daily inspirations, this book contains bold insights on how we conduct our lives. Rich, poor, nobility, spouses, leaders... all are required to take a deeper look at the life they're leading.
