PRAISE for VOYAGE
“This book of reflections illustrates important lessons about the spiritual life and will inform and encourage every reader who picks it up!”
+Bishop BASIL
Wichita and the Diocese of Mid-America, Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America
“VOYAGE explores the full coastline of Orthodox Christianity, drawing insight in particular from the perspective of the Western Rite, the ancient worship of the British Isles. This journey is framed in language simultaneously poetic and accurate, which is good evidence of a worthy guide.”
Frederica Mathewes-Green
Best selling author of The Illumined Heart: Capture the Vibrant Faith of the Ancient Christians
“Smith’s description of how she came to grips with depression, disillusion, and discouragement is inspiring. Her story of coming into Orthodox Christianity is compelling for its frank and honest examination of what it means to be an Orthodox woman in the twenty-first century.”
The Very Rev. Lester Michael Bundy
Professor Emeritus, Religious Studies, Regis Jesuit University, Denver, CO, and Priest-in-Charge, St. Columba Antiochian Orthodox Church, Lafayette, CO
“Readers will find themselves quietly sitting beside the author pondering their own voyage as she navigates them through a troubled and peaceful journey that is both hers—and theirs.”
Dr. Bradley Nassif
Professor of Theological Studies, North Park University, Chicago, Holy Transfiguration Antiochian Church, Warrenville, IL
“Using the metaphor of a voyage, Lynette Smith shares her spiritual and ecclesiastical autobiography with openness, honesty, and integrity. Those who follow her reflections from her Pentecostal roots to the sacramental life of Western Rite Orthodoxy will be the better for it. Christians from all traditions will benefit by accompanying Lynette on this formative voyage.”
Dr. Keith Wells
Associate Professor of Theological Bibliography and Research, Library Director, Denver Seminary, contributor for Touchstone Journal
