ANNOUNCEMENT: Early Icons Book is Published!
Buy on Amazon Kindle - check out these endorsements!
I’m thrilled to announce that my book Early Icons is now available for purchase on Amazon Kindle! Paper copies will be available for order next week. See below:
I hope this book will honor God and help persuade many people that the veneration of holy images is a valid and necessary part of Christian faith. I’m extremely happy with how it turned out, and have many people to thank. A short list (there are more!):
My wife Tatyana
My entire family
Fr. Steven Bigham
My godbrother Mark Krause
Seraphim Hamilton
Perry Robinson
My godfather John Elmore
Kyle King
Luther Menard and Fr. Jonathan Ivanov
Dave Sims
Suan Sona
John Nusias
Evangelos Nikitopoulos
Treydon Lunot
I was very excited not only to receive Father Steven Bigham’s direction and endorsement (he wrote the Foreword!) but also the esteemed apologist Trent Horn.
It is my hope that this book will be a game-changer for the discussion on image veneration in the early Church. Please pray that it is shared widely and helps open people up to the importance of having and using holy images to connect with God.
More announcements and info coming soon.
