Part 2 of Missionary Letters of Saint Nikolai Velimirovich
Volume VII of A Treasury of Serbian Orthodox Spirituality
“Here is the second volume, the next hundred letters of Saint Nikolai Velimirovich, in Serbian and in English. Instead of a foreword, we decided to print Cassiana in this volume–an exceptional spiritual writing of the Holy Bishop, which will help our readers along the path to spiritual perfection. Cassiana, translated by Hieromonk Serafim Baltic, is published in English language only. [...W]hatever one might want to learn about Christian love, he will be able to learn it from this wondrous book.”
