[{"id":118575,"title":"Concerning Frequent Communion of the Immaculate Mysteries of Christ","subtitle":null,"description":"These words of our Lord Jesus Christ have been, since the moment they were spoken, a \"scandal\" and stumbling block, and a point of departure for all who could not see in them \"words of eternal life\" (Jn. 6:58). The misconceptions and mis-interpretations continue to exist today, as does the need for a patristic and pastoral response. Just such a reply exists in Saint Nikodemos' renowned work, \"Concerning Frequent Communion\". The pious reader will find therein answers, combed from the entire patristic tradition, to such questions as: How should I approach the Holy Mysteries? What preparation is necessary? How often should I commune? And, what does it mean to be \"worthy\" of Holy Communion? Based upon and gathered from the teachings of the Holy Fathers of the Church, \"Concernring Frequent Communion\" provides a much needed, comprehensive and \"catholic corrective\" to the variety of one-sided approaches so prevelant today.\u003cbr\u003eThis, the second volume in the series The Works of Saint Nikodemos the Hagiorite, includes a thorough explanation of the Lord's Prayer, an apology for frequent communion, answers to objections and clarifications of misconceptions. This edition is further enriched with a brief history of the book's compilation and two appendices on the Divine Eucharist from otHer works of Saint Nikodemos.","image":"http://www.biblionet.gr/images/covers/b121168.jpg","isbn":"960-86778-5-8","isbn13":"978-960-86778-5-2","ismn":null,"issn":null,"series":null,"pages":241,"publication_year":2006,"publication_place":"Θεσσαλονίκη","price":"13.0","price_updated_at":"2007-06-04","cover_type":"Μαλακό εξώφυλλο","availability":"Κυκλοφορεί","format":"Βιβλίο","original_language":null,"original_title":null,"publisher_id":1952,"extra":null,"biblionet_id":121168,"url":"https://bibliography.gr/books/concerning-frequent-communion-of-the-immaculate-mysteries-christ.json"}]
