Meeting the Incarnate God: From the Human Depths to the Mystery of Fidelity
In Meeting the Incarnate God: From the Human Depths to the Mystery of Fidelity, Metropolitan Philip (Saliba) of blessed memory and Fr. Joseph Allen present a profound exploration of the human experience and the journey towards encountering the divine in the Orthodox Christian tradition. This book offers valuable insights into the depth of faith, spirituality, and the transformative power of encountering God in the midst of human life's joys and struggles.
