About the book: 2015 / For most of the 20th century, the name of the Righteous John of Kronstadt was banned by the authorities. Why did the Saint frighten the Soviet leaders so much? Is it not because the power of prayer addressed to the Kronstadt shepherd was much more powerful than the weapons and knowledge of the materialists? Thousands of people who turn to Saint John of Kronstadt for help and ask for healing and well-being receive grace and enlightenment. Deep faith, love, devotion to Orthodoxy, as well as a sincere attitude towards personal holiness attracted the hearts of petitioners to Father John. John of Kronstadt himself said: “I have nothing else but the grace of the priesthood, which is received by every priest upon ordination; warm it up and you will do even greater and more glorious things.” In this book you will find an amazing life story of the Saint himself, descriptions of miracles performed by Father John, parting words and prayers.
