Sing to Your Soul 2: Our Life in the Church

By St John Chrysostom
translated by David C. Ford

This delightfully compact volume combines the accessibility of language with frankness of message that has made St. John Chrysostom dear to readers for generations. David Ford's new translation of selected passages from the "golden-mouthed" preacher's prodigious output preserves the immediacy of the original, bursting with enthusiasm for his listener's ear while remaining economical in the medium of communication.

The Church as Christ’s Body

The Church as Our Mother
The Church as Heaven on Earth
