“This book is comprised of four homilies that were written for Orthodox audiences in different parts of the United States. The idea of publishing them together was not in my mind at the time I wrote them. Recently, I decided to publish them in book form and, thus, make them available to the general reading public who are interested in Orthodox Christian spirituality. To this end, I arranged them so that they follow each other in the appropriate sequence. [...]Holiness: Man’s Supreme Destiny constitutes a sequel to my book Paths and Means to Holiness[...]. These books complement one another, dealing with different aspects of the same very important subject of holiness. Both are addressed to persons who are interested in developing spiritually and aspire to make the highest spiritual attainments: purity, likeness, to God, and union with Him, the Fount of holiness.” —“Preface”
