Discover the Timeless Spiritual Wisdom of Saint John of Kronstadt
This powerful new English translation (2023) brings to life the profound spiritual diaries of Saint John of Kronstadt (1829–1908), one of the most beloved Orthodox Christian saints and miracle workers of Russia. Originally published in 1893 as "My Life in Christ, or Times of Spiritual Revelation and Contemplation, Reverent Feelings, Spiritual Enhancement and Silent Existence in God," this masterpiece contains 1,820 daily reflections on prayer, faith, repentance, and living a Christ-centered life.
A Translation Blessed by a Living Saint
This sacred translation was executed with the holy blessing and prayers of Schema-Archimandrite Iliy (Nozdrin) (1932–2025), the revered elder and spiritual father of His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of the Russian Orthodox Church. Father Iliy, a monk of the historic Optina Pustyn Monastery, dedicated his life to prayer for Russia and for all people worldwide who carry Christ and love in their hearts. Translator Alexandra Chuvarayan, his spiritual daughter, has faithfully rendered Saint John's words into English for a new generation of seekers.
