The main theme of the book, the journey people assume towards God, permits us to speak about the Christian theology and the Byzantine culture on which it stands. The piece might shed some light on how especially contemporary Church manages (if it does so) to combine the adherence to tradition with the ability to respond to the circumstances that twenty-first century human beings face, to their real needs - some of them acute - as individuals and as members of communities, be they small or entire nations.
