  1. Br. Isaac Lambertsen

A wholly new edition of a long out of print favorite, with the addition of the liturgical service in his honor and a full color cover icon. Born of an apparently barren mother after her insistent prayers, St. Stephen was consecrated evern from his earliest days to the Lord’s service. Taking the monastic habit as a teenager, he distinguished himself in piety from his earliest days, unknowlingly preparing himself for suffering and ultimate death at the hands of the haters of icons at the age of 53, on 28 November 767. Far from a “mere” story of suffering and death at the hands of the godless, the account of St. Stephen’s life provides a profound insight into the defenders of the holy icons and their persecutors.
