I had the same experience: at first I was only able to understand St. Sophrony’s portion of the book, and actually had a certain dislike for the texts of St. Silouan, but at some point I came to a deep love of them and now I pretty much only read the latter half. Thanks for this- I’ve been loosely following his channel but I should be more systematic

This is fascinating. Thanks a lot for sharing this. I'll definitively be listening to this.

Have you read Fr. John Romanides before? I wonder what your opinion would be of "Franks, Romans, Feudalism, and Doctrine."

I have read pieces/quotes/articles by him, but never a full work. I'd be super interested in reading that book. I'll try and find it.

It's been online for ages — looks like it, too: www.romanity.org
