The Open Door: Entering the Sanctuary of Icons and Prayer (Pocket Faith Series, 4)

Rating:
Summary: A Nice Little Pocket Book on Orthodox Icons and Prayer
Review: Frederica Mathewes-Green's little book is a quick and easy read that is reflective and revealing. She does a magnificent job in describing the layout of Orthodox Church buildings, the use and place of icons, and "feasts and icons" (a section I found particularily helpful). This book is intended, I think, for non-orthodox and Orthodox Christians alike who want an introductory type book, either as material to learn more about the place icons and sancuaries have in Orthodox worship or for just a nice quick refreshing read.
