In Great Lent, Fr. Alexander Schmemann offers profound insights into the rich spiritual meaning of the Lenten season. Exploring treasures like the Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts, the Prayer of St. Ephraim, and the Canon of St. Andrew, this revised edition unveils the depth and purpose of Lenten worship, often misunderstood or overlooked.
Schmemann describes Lent as a journey of “bright sadness,” a time to awaken our hearts to the remembrance of Christ and rekindle a relationship with God that may feel distant. Through fasting, prayer, and reflection, Lent becomes a sacred space for spiritual renewal, leading us through its solemnity to the radiant joy of the Resurrection.
This book is an inspiring companion for anyone seeking to experience Lent more deeply, rediscover the beauty of Orthodox worship, and draw closer to God during this transformative season.
About the Author: Fr Alexander Schmemann was a prolific writer, brilliant lecturer, and dedicated pastor. Former dean and professor of liturgical theology at St Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary, his insight into contemporary culture and liturgical celebration left an indelible mark on the Christian community worldwide.
