In this concise volume, Bishop Irenei renews his exploration of the patristic genre of centuries ? one hundred short paragraphs that can be read individually but are connected by a common theme ?   that he previously utilized in "The Beginnings of a Life of Prayer." Here, His Grace offers five centuries that impart, in a mode comprehensible to the contemporary reader, eternal truths expressed by the Holy Fathers on Love, on the Church, and more.
