From book jacket:
Since 1959, Archbishop Iakovos has been the spiritual leader of America's 1.5 million Greek Orthodox Christians. A remarkable religious figure, he has always dealt with the essentials of Christian life and faith in a direct, concise, and penetrating way. Now, in his first book, he offers a thoroughly modern spiritual guide for all Christians who seek a strong and everlasting relationship with God.
Sharing his personal observations and experiences on the inner way of the Christian life, Achbishop Iakovos explores the steps each of us must take in our journey to God. Here is the Private Way, the private roads of spiritual development that include personal prayer and meditation; the exploration of the meaning of faith; the search for the place of adoration and worship during the spiritual journey; and the study of the Bible as the cornerstone of faith, especially the centrality of the Cross of Christ.
And here, too, is the Public Way, the public highways of spiritual growth with other believers, including the experiencing of joy, nurturance, and correction within the Christian community; understanding how to conduct an authentic, life-changing dialogue with others; developing a spirit-infused marital relationship, and becoming one with the mystical, exhilarating liturgy of the Church.
Beautifully written an imbued with a true spiritual wisdom, Faith For a Lifetime offers a lifetime of inspirational reading for every Christian man and woman.
Archbishop Iakovos is the primate of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of North and South America. He is well known as an advocate of ecumenism and social justice. William Proctor is a freelance writer of more than twenty-dive books, including The Templeton Touch.
