Conversations that the author conducted in 1990-1992. – as an addition to catechetical conversations, they represent an evangelistic genre, loved by the holy fathers and teachers of the Church in the “classical” patristic centuries (III-IX centuries). He was almost forgotten in modern times. The genre of conversation differs from sermons or letters to spiritual children in that it is primarily an oral genre: the speech of the conversation flows in the style of a live dialogue with listeners. The conversations reproduce listeners’ questions and answers, so that the reader can imagine this audience and learn about the problems that worried them at that moment. This collection includes conversations “What is justice”, “The unholy “holy lie”” and “Effort and violence”.

The series consists of 10 issues. It is intended, in addition to adult catechumens, for students and teachers of Christian educational institutions, as well as everyone interested in modern aspects of understanding and implementing the principles of Christian ethics.
