At the Corner of East and Now

📖 The Scoop

Interspersed with reflections on the liturgy and the Orthodox faith are accounts of adventures around the country. In all the places she visits and all the people she meets, Frederica finds insights about faith, American life and what it means to be human and she shares these insights with the wit, pathos and folksy friendliness that have made her one of the most beloved spiritual writers in America.Listen to Frederica's podcast, [i]Frederica Here and Now[/i], at www.ancientfaith.com.Frederica Mathewes-Green is an Eastern Orthodox author and speaker on the subjects of religion and abortion.
