“Very few Christian writings can rightfully be referred to as a ‘modern spiritual classic,’ but Archbishop Joseph Raya’s The Face of God most certainly merits such an accolade. Written in an accessible and compelling style that reflects his deeply pastoral and liturgical heart, the former Melkite Archbishop of a local Church that includes both Nazareth and Galilee calls us to renew the spiritual fire of the Gospel of the Kingdom first announced there two thousand years ago and echoed in the Byzantine Paschal greeting: ‘Christ is Risen!’” - Fr. Daniel G. Dozier, Executive Chairman and Director of God With Us Institute and author of "20 Answers: Eastern Catholicism" from Catholic Answers
