Beschreibung
Return to God is a book on repentance by H.H. Pope Shenouda III, Pope and Patriarch of the Coptic Orthodox Church, for everyone who feels far from God and wants to come back.
"The most dangerous thing about sin," writes His Holiness, "is that it means a separation from God": being cut off from Him in one's love, will and activity, on earth and in heaven. This book asks the questions every believer faces sooner or later. What is the story of this rift between God and man? What does it mean to return to God? How does one return? And what is the central role of prayer in that return?
Pope Shenouda answers with the clarity and fatherly warmth for which he is loved. He shows both the seriousness of turning away from God's grace and the joy and importance of reconciliation with Him, and how that reconciliation takes place.
Return to God is ideal reading for Lent and times of fasting, before confession, or at any moment when a person wants a fresh start in the spiritual life. It is also a helpful resource for priests, confession fathers, servants and youth leaders who guide others on the path of repentance.
