Как устроено богослужение Церкви

Upon finding oneself at an Orthodox worship service, a person most often feels its grandeur and depth, but does not fully understand its meaning. In order for worship to become an integral part of a believer's life, it is necessary to understand the structure of the church service, to grasp the significance of the words and actions of the clergy heard in the temple.

The book unveils the wise logic of the church Statute and the beauty of the Church's prayer. It tells about the system of ecclesiastical timekeeping: about the daily, weekly, and annual liturgical cycles that create the unique essence of each day. It helps to comprehend the "immeasurable" vigil and to feel the place of the liturgy in the liturgical time - the place where the eternal manifests in the temporal.
