SALT OF THE EARTH is the heartwarming biography of Hieromonk Isidore (1814–1908), the great Elder of Gethsemane Hermitage in Russia.
In SALT OF THE EARTH, both the life and personality of Elder Isidore have been captured with remarkable clarity by the Elder’s spiritual son, New Martyr Paul Florensky (†1937). He takes the reader directly into Fr. Isidore’s world, so that by the time the book is finished, the Elder is already a dear friend.
Radiant with Christ-like love and childlike simplicity, Elder Isidore lived in another world, yet kept both feet firmly planted on the ground. He was one of those whom Christ called the salt of the earth (Matt. 5:13)—a repository of the rare otherworldly savor of ancient Christianity.
“One glance of his could destroy all human conventions, because he was above the world and enjoyed the highest spiritual freedom. It seemed as if he didn’t walk upon the earth, but was rather suspended by invisible threads to some other land. All of this filled him with an inner lightness. All those who came to him heavily burdened would lose their heaviness. With a light smile, as if playing, he could, with impunity, turn any human conditions of common life into joy.”
—excerpt from SALT OF THE EARTH
This revised second edition contains additional material on the Elder by Metropolitan Benjamin (Fedchenkov).
*Paperback 176 pp.

Just Classic Batman!
Format: Kindle
I don't think I have read these tales in about 20 years. I miss Jeph Loeb on Batman. While I think he put a great spin on Superman, Loeb set the foundation for all of the visual medium for Batman. This collection of three one-shots gives us good Scarecrow and Mad Hatter Halloween stories. My favorite was the final story with a retelling of A Christmas Carol but Halloween and Batman.

A few twists
Format: Paperback
These stories are well written and have a unique take on several beloved characters… I completely recommend this for some light reading in between some of the more intense story’s.
