Fragrant Flowers: Orthodox Homilies on the Lives of the Saints

Augoustinos N. Kantiotes
Translation and Foreword by Asterios Gerostergios

“This book is a small Calendar of Saints (heortologion). It speaks about the Saints. The Saints are the living miracle of God in the course of history. The saints are the living proof about the truth of our holy religion. There are many who say that what the Gospels teaches is impossible to apply in life. The Saints, however, prove them wrong. The Saints are the Gospel and Epistles in application.”
—“Preface”
