The writer and publicist Natalya Irtenina strives for all eras in the life of Russia and the Russian Church, including the past, to present through the prism of holiness. The chronicler Nestor and Vladimir Monomakh, Sergius of Radonezh and Andrei Rublev, Tikhon Kaluga and Trifon Pechengsky, Theodorite of Kola and Varlaam Keretsky, Serafim Sarovsky and Patriarch Tikhon, Holy New Martyr Tatyana Grimblit and many others became the heroes of the book. In their biographies, the theme of the lively participation of saints in the folding of Russian history, in the development of culture, education, art is clearly sounding. Orthodoxy and Christian holiness are shown as a Russian national idea, and saints as educators, enlighteners and trustees of the Russian people
