Rev. Dr. Miltiades B. Efthimiou, an Orthodox protopresbyter of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople, shares an encouraging message which motivates the reader to aspire to seek the source of all wisdom, focusing on the love between God and man. Far from a life history written for family and friends, this memoir covers a sweeping range of topics, from the existence of life in outer space, encouragement to reflect on faith with poetic allusions of the Garden of Eden and the ripple effect caused by politics and religion.

A Collection of Life Stories takes readers on a journey through Miltiades' life, with key ""stops along the way"" providing important reminders that we create our own destiny. The stories within cross continents from ancient to modern times, weaving a tapestry of history, art, religion and memorable life lessons. These thought provoking reflections encourage the reader to accept what we cannot change, change the things we can-and understand the difference between the two. It's a beautiful testament to a life well lived in faith and authenticity.

Rev. Dr. Miltiades B. Efthimiou has spent his life studying, lecturing, and writing, reflecting often on history, religion, faith and life. Miltiades, an academic, earned four degrees, and was also called to serve in the ministry. Religion and theology have played a key role in his life's journey, whether he was involved in a governmental advisory committee or geo-political conference at the Vatican or in the Middle East - or simply when sharing messages of faith while an active member of the clergy. A contemplative who enjoys writing and history, Rev. Dr. Miltiades B. Efthimiou has also authored History of the Orthodox Church in the Americas (1984), Latins and Greeks on Cyprus (1987) and Titles, Offices, and Ranks in the Byzantine Empire (2016).
