This book contains the articles of D. G. Koutroumbs that were published in magazines and newspapers from 1956 to 1966, and are probably the entirety of his published writings. These articles examine topics that refer to the teaching and life of the Church, such as: the content and work of theology, the Church as the body of Christ, the presence of the Virgin Mary and the Saints, secular and liturgical time, the content of despotic holidays, the mystery of man and woman, the theology of the Fathers, or theological issues of the time when the articles were written. Although at first sight they seem to have a varied content, in essence all together constitute a theological essay approaching the mystery of the Church.

The book is prefaced by Archimandrite Basilios, prior of the Holy Monastery of Iberon.
