About the Author

Father Alexander Men (1935-1990), was a Russian Orthodox priest and popular spiritual teacher who was publicly martyred in 1990 in the former USSR. A deeply charismatic and faithful man, he devoted his life to the reform of the Russian Orthodox Church, and to sharing his faith with a generation of youth who had been deprived of the Church's teaching.
