The book "Sympathy Father" by the prominent Orthodox theologian Protopresbyter Borys Bobrynsky reflects the very essence of Christianity in its title. It is about the infinite, immeasurable love of Heavenly Father for His creation, image and likeness - man. In a fallen, sinful world, God's love, if necessary, manifests itself as compassion. Christ's sacrifice for humanity is also a desperate sacrifice. The closer a person is to God, the stronger his compassionate love for his neighbor. The book of Fr. Boris reveals to us the path of Christian perfection. For many of our contemporaries, it can be a revelation of unfamiliar spiritual experience.
