If you have people going to Egypt who are willing to get it for you, I strongly encourage that. The cymbals you get from church bookstores in the U.S. just aren't as good. If what copticuser20 recommended isn't possible, go to any local musical in…

Talk to your FoC about it. I think I understand your situation because I had similar issues with pride. But I don't think any advice I give will be beneficial because it will be too generic. Your FoC will be able to prescribe the best remedy. Pray…

The HCOC's section of Coptic Hymns in English is a great resource.

The problem lies in that we try to judge what is good and bad from our very limited mind. It was this pride that caused man's separation from God. The fact that man thought he knew better than God did. Man desired to know what was good and bad. We n…

I think childoforthodoxy's advice was best. If you do not have any guidance when you choose a spiritual book, you may find yourself reading books that may not benefit you or that you pick up for a while and never finish, etc. Talk to your FoC.
