<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"Prayer is a refuge of God's great mercy to the human race." The refuge is a place of inner stillness and peace where the heart is fully opened to the embrace of God's love. It is a return to the ancient paradise from which the human race, in Adam, had to depart because of disobedience to the command of God. <i>The Refuge</i> is an exposition of the concrete actions we should take if we truly desire to live with and in God. It weaves together meditations on scripture (from the Psalms in particular) and amplifies these with the wisdom of early Christian saints, in particular the ascetical writings of St. John of the Ladder, St. Macarius the Great, and St. Isaac the Syrian. It is an active exhortation for us to reacquire the original nobility with which God fashioned us in the beginning.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Ignatius Brianchaninov</b> (1807-1867) was a prolific author of Orthodox Christian ascetical works.
