I am not sure where I got this book, probably from a pile of books that someone donated to our parish in Tupelo some time ago. Anyhow, I really have enjoyed reading this book of the writings of St John Chrysostom. I read this over a period of several months, which probably is a good way to read it. It is organized in small passages of his writing, a page or less in length, more than 200 of them. They were easy to digest and reflect upon. St John Chrysostom was the Archbishop of Constantinople in the late 4th and early 5th century, and he is one of the revered Doctors of the Church. He was known as one of the greatest preachers in the early Church. His writings certainly have a lot of wisdom in them.
