She is truly a great confessor of the Orthodox Christian faith.The road to sainthood takes a lifetime to travel. . . . In the fourth century, Christians are labeled enemies of the Roman Empire-hounded, arrested, tortured, and executed. Macrina and her husband Basil, once-wealthy Christians, flee with their small son to the mountainous forests south of the Black Sea. There, Macrina embarks on a seven-year journey of unexpected tests and trials that will take her through a harsh and hungry wilderness pilgrimage, only to plunge her into poverty and danger on the streets of Neocaesarea. So begins Macrina's adventure in faith, as she undertakes the process of becoming one of the most influential women in sacred history, the mother and grandmother of saints.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA chapter book for young adults.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn Orthodox Christian young adult book from Ancient Faith Publishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bev Cooke\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1888212772\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781888212778\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ancient Faith Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.92h x 5.50w x 0.49d","brand":"Bev Cooke","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44049486807295,"sku":"9781888212778","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1d94807d-de63-41c7-9a10-a15931200665.jpg?v=1685001777","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/keeper-of-the-light-bev-cooke-9781888212778","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
