History & Biography

“Reading R. K. Cogburn’s manuscript on Saint Macrina the Younger filled me with delight. Providing readers with powerful insights into Macrina’s life and theology, her accessible narrative is enriched by the historical, social, and theological context provided. Effortlessly, the author weaves in important elements of Macrina’s life and times, allowing us to appreciate more fully this beloved woman. The author not only provides an engaging historical narrative, but encourages readers to mediate and reflect on Macrina’s teachings. This book is perfect for small groups.”
