Kevin Edgecomb at Biblicalia, the Bombaxo blog, just posted a remarkable passage from John Chryssavgis’s book The Way of the Fathers (a book I have not read). The post ends with this lovely line: “To become famili-arized with the Church Fathers and Mothers is to belong to the same family (cf. Matt. 12:49-50) in our own culture and age.” Read the whole thing.

Here’s another source that looks promising.
