Excellent book. I needed this to help me understand the role of the Theotokos in our religion. I was raised heterodox and my education concerning the Theotokos is woefully inadequate. This to me is pretty much a sacred text as far as I’m concerned. Outstanding information contained within backed by scriptures as well. And my transaction with Holy Trinity was flawless. I truly recommend this book as well as purchasing from Holy Trinity. CHRISTOS ANESTI!!!
It is one of the most comprehensive volumes on the Theotokos that I have come across and is a blessing to any Orthodox library
All items arrive very quickly and celery well packed! Thank you!
Amazing book on the Theotokos. Great addition to my home library. Glory to God!!!
What an amazing book to have to learn about the Mother of God. I grew up protestant, so this is especially helpful to me to learn and understand, now that I'm Orthodox.
This review is not of the content of the books, but of their material quality. As I ordered well over twenty books for a transatlantic shipment, I was very happy on their arrival in pristine shape and condition.
Overall the printings seem very good, hardbacks and softcovers alike, with good and tight bindings. Old school quality as district from what print-on-demand now more often than not seem to produce.
I am only about three or four books in out of the lot, but I was very happy with the Monastery catalogue, and I would be happy to place a next order when I manage to summon enough additional titles to make a shipment worthwhile.
exactly what I was looking for , highly recommend .
Very informative and enlightening for me as I did not know almost anything about blessed Theotokos. I recommend this book.
Great book. Suggest everyone to get this book and keep in private library, and read it often...
The content is excellent, historically based and informative.
There is a lot of unknown and unusual information.
For future publications I would suggest to add coloured images and a larger text font.
Also, please consider publishing it in Greek, as many of the texts referred to are originally in Greek and the translation looses some of the strength of the original text.
God bless you all.
Highly Recommend. There is no other book like this dedicated fully to the Theotokos. One of a kind.
Great book, and in English! What joy! Glory to God!
A beautiful clarifying of the spiritual contours of the Godbearer’s life and falling asleep.
