Philosophy

“A wonderful book that sets out the palpable connection between ancient Greek philosophy and the teachings of Christ. Through elucidating the teachings of the Hesychast movement in medieval Christianity, Dr. Laos sets forward how the Platonic and Aristotelian teachings of man's striving for union with the Divine prepared the way and set the stage for Jesus. In the process, we may gain an understanding of how it was God's will to use the Greek philosophical precepts to prepare the way for Christ's Light.”
