Beschreibung
What is man? This book speaks to you about you: about the human person from an Orthodox Christian perspective. In What is Man, H.H. Pope Shenouda III, the late Pope and Patriarch of the Coptic Orthodox Church, takes the reader on a journey inside themselves to discover who they really are.
He speaks about human abilities and instincts and how to control them. He explains how a person is led, and if it is by the mind, what leads the mind. What are thoughts, and can they be controlled? What is the role of the conscience, the heart and the spirit? And what about the body?
The book also asks what true life is, and how life should be fruitful and leave a legacy. Above all, it shows how to use all our abilities and every part of our being for good.
Clear and practical, it suits anyone seeking self-knowledge in the light of faith, young people working out who they are, Bible study and youth groups, and confession fathers and servants who guide others in the spiritual struggle. It offers an accessible introduction to the Orthodox Christian understanding of the human person.
