In this concise yet rich guide, Deacon Charles Joiner distills the Orthodox Christian path into ten essential practices for laypeople who desire to live in union with God amid the demands of modern life. Drawing on the wisdom of the Church Fathers and rooted in the sacramental life of the Church, the book shows how daily prayer, participation in the sacraments, fasting, Scripture reading, and community support can transform the heart and reorder one's life toward Christ. Ideal for catechumens, inquirers, and lifelong Orthodox Christians, this book is a spiritual roadmap toward peace, purpose, and the joy of the Kingdom.
