{"product_id":"apostle-to-zaire-dimitri-aslanidis-9781639410101","title":"Apostle to Zaire","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn every generation there are those few exceptional souls who rise out of the conventionality of social life to become path-finders to the catholicity and otherworldliness of Christianity. Heroic and uncompromising, they imitate Abraham and become exiles and martyrs for Christ, following Him with loving exactness and mountain-moving faith. They \"hate their life in this world\" in order to keep it - and that of their neighbor's - for eternity; and to successive generations they become models to imitate, witnessing, long after their departure, to the honour the Father bestows on those who serve Him. Such a one was Blessed Father Cosmas of Grigoriou, enlightener of Zaire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book is divided into two parts: In part one, we encounter the life, last days, letters and the writings of an Athonite ascetic, a modern model of mission, an apostle to the heart of Africa and an upholder, defender and conveyer of the life-giving Tradition. In part two, we read accounts of miracles and the battle with magic, interventions of the Saints and conversions of sinners, missionary adventures and baptismal testimonies. A unique biography of a contemporary missionary and holy monk of Mount Athos and a practical introduction to contemporary Orthodox Missiology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dimitri Aslanidis, Monk Damascene Grigoriatis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1639410104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781639410101\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Uncut Mountain Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/12\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.61d","brand":"Dimitri Aslanidis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45934227226879,"sku":"9781639410101","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_db3386d7-134c-4f5c-92be-2d3296af9473.jpg?v=1721790652","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/apostle-to-zaire-dimitri-aslanidis-9781639410101","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
