What does man seek in religion and what should he seek in it? How does God reveal Himself in order to bring man to a knowledge of the Truth? How does suffering help this revelation to occur? Fr. Seraphim Rose addressed these and other issues during a lecture at the University of California, Santa Cruz, in 1981. God's Revelation to the Human Heart is a transcription of that lecture, and the question-and-answer session between Fr. Seraphim and the university students.

Drawing upon a wealth of resources--the Holy Scriptures, patristic writings, the Lives of ancient and modern saints, and accounts of persecuted Christians in today's world--Fr. Seraphim leads the audience to the core of all Christian life: the conversion of the heart of man, which begins to burn with love for Christ and transforms him into a new man.

Fr Seraphim was a hieromonk, author and speaker who dedicated his life to the Gospel of Jesus Christ and calling modern man to repentance, faith and true life in Christ. From his remote monastic cabin in the mountains of northern California, he produced writings that have reached millions throughout the earth. Today he is one of the most beloved spiritual teachers in America, Russia and Europe. His spoken and written teaching have changed countless lives with their sobering truth.
