Each year after Pascha, the Orthodox Church celebrates the Holy Myrrhbearers, who cared for Jesus’s body after He was crucified.

By following the lead of saints, we can learn to embrace a simple and profound way of life in communion with Christ and with others.

I wrote these books, Part One and Part Two, for all those who demanded of me believable answers to their thoughtful and intelligent questions. With or without me, these people so often found themselves in the presence of the Risen Christ and subsequently had even more questions about Jesus of Nazareth. He was and is to them the man Jesus, before the transformation wrought by the resurrection. Our subsequent myths have bred confusion, making Jesus of Nazareth remote and incomprehensible and the Risen Christ an unrelated magical figure.

Challenges abound when it comes to reading Scripture, including not only the variety of actual interpretations of the Bible but also the plurality of reading cultures, each with its own preferred frame of reference. A cynical observer might say that Christians have never agreed upon how to interpret the Bible, or even on the meaning of the "literal sense."

Life expectancy worldwide is twice what it was a hundred years ago. And because of modern medicine, many of us don't often see death up close. That makes it easy to live as if death is someone else's problem. Ignoring the certainty of death doesn't protect us from feeling its effects throughout the lives we're living now—but it does hold us back from experiencing the powerful, everyday relevance of Jesus's promises to us. So long as death remains remote and unreal, Jesus's promises will too. But honesty about death brings hope to life.

Written in the late second century by Theophilus, bishop of Antioch, the treatise addresses his friend Autolycus, a cultured and intelligent critic of Christianity, who had dismissed the faith as irrational and unworthy of serious thought.
