A book for children draws attention: 'The Alphabet in Proverbs of the Russian People'. The book reveals to the young reader all the richness of the native language, enriches their vocabulary, makes them think about new truths. A child is pure in heart – and open to love for the homeland, for their faith, for their people. Who said that religion is rigidity? Look at the offerings of 'Russian Pilgrim': here are both a traditional bookshelf, and films addressed to the viewer's heart, and audio CDs.
Visitors are constantly kept informed of new arrivals of DVDs, MP3s, and other products. The online store finds the key to the heart of any buyer. To buy a book in 'Russian Pilgrim', no astronomical sums are required, despite the fact that the books they present are written by erudite people, with references to other publications, meaning the authors have seriously worked on them. For example, the book 'Living Candles' by monk Varnava is a delight for the reader, costing only 160 rubles, while the beautifully published children's book 'Angel's Tales' (The Ten Commandments for Children) costs just 88 rubles. What parents would begrudge such a sum to introduce their child to the truth, to make Sacred History not monotonously edifying but lively, engaging, and memorable! The tradition of dedicating some time each day to spiritual reading, reflecting on the sayings of the wise, drawing lessons from them, and pondering what previously seemed insignificant, has now been revived.
For those who love to absorb wise words daily, there is the book 'Thoughts for Every Day' by Saint Justin. With love, prayer, and kindness, he selected sayings of such spiritual writers and theologians as John Climacus, Theophylact, Macarius of Egypt, John Chrysostom. The lives of Orthodox saints serve the same purpose. Not every person is granted to reach such heights, but everyone can take as an example some good, lofty, pure actions. Reading such a book, a person reflects, and upon reflection begins to change, striving to be worthy of what they have read in a wise book. It is hard not to recommend such reading!
The section on liturgical literature is conveniently structured. Here you can find books for priests and their flock, and for those who have dedicated their lives to pure service to the Lord, becoming monks. Particularly attractive were books translated into English: after all, children of Orthodox Christians living abroad often lose their native language, and such books help them keep their faith pure.
