Books

The Word of God conceals within itself the power of God, the power of Christ. And when you immerse your mind and heart in spiritual books, you will always be filled when you come forth from your reading. What then do spiritual books give us? They give us, first of all, a foundation in God. The power of the word of God conquers our sins and defeats the devil, as St. John Chrysostom says (Third Homily on Lazarus).
