Моя жизнь во Христе. Том 1

John of Kronstadt (Ivan Ilyich Sergeev, 1829-1908) - priest of the Russian Orthodox Church, preacher, one of the most significant saints of the Russian northern capital. As a spiritual writer, he left behind many sermons and diary entries, which were included in his numerous religious writings. The central place among them is occupied by "My life in Christ, or Minutes of spiritual sobriety and contemplation, reverent feeling, spiritual correction and peace in God." About his book “My Life in Christ” I. Kronstadtsky said: “I will not send a preface to my edition: let it speak for itself. Everything contained in it is nothing more than a gracious illumination of the soul, which I received from the all-enlightening Spirit of God in moments of deep attention to myself and self-examination, especially during prayer. "

This book can be an excellent guide to the spiritual life for all who strive to bring their personal life closer to the ideal to which the All-Russian pastor urges his readers by the apostolic covenant: "Imitate me as I am Christ."
