Three Holy Elders from Greece
My husband and I have spent the last few months reading about the lives and spiritual teachings of these three Holy Elders from Greece, Fr. Iakovos of Evia, Elder Paisios of Mt. Athos, and Elder Prophyrios. In particular, “Wounded by Love“. The Life and the Wisdom of Elder Prophyrios is so touching. He talks about the path of love when pursing one’s spiritual struggles. All their books have changed my approach to spiritual struggles in unique ways. They are men of our times and I highly recommend reading their books:
The Life of Elder Iakovos of Evia
Elder Paisios of Mt. Athos, Spiritual Counsels, volumes I,II,III
Wounded by Love, The Life and the Wisdom of Elder Prophyrios
