The Significance of the New Martyrs in the Life of the Orthodox Church

by Constantine Cavarnos
Translated by Hieromonk Patapios

19 pp.
$4.95


Basing his essay largely on the New Martyrology by Saint Nicodemos the Hagiorite, Dr. Cavarnos argues that the New Martyrs “teach and remind us that the martyr’s way to holiness is not only a way that many Christians followed in the first centuries of the Christian era, but also a way that a multitude of Christians followed in modern times.”
