Every Orthodox Christian is faced with the need to have at hand a book about his faith outlining the most important topics. This book can be used for spiritual self-education and for the enlightenment of others, since it contains all the foundations of Orthodox dogma: the earthly life of our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ, the exploits and miracles of the holy apostles, the foundations of the Orthodox faith in questions and answers. The book is recommended by the Publishing Council of the Russian Orthodox Church.
