LOS ANGELES — Mother Siluana’s latest book, Theology of the Ordinary, a companion to God, Where Is the Wound?, offers a profound spiritual guide for modern readers struggling with confusion, wounds, and depression. Speaking from her own experiences of doubt, hospitalization, and spiritual renewal, she addresses the universal human struggle to recognize our identity in God’s image and live authentically.
Published by St. George Press, the book compiles her conferences, including The Theology of Small Things, Who Am I?, and The Source of Depression in Modern Man, exploring themes of self-knowledge, healing, and spiritual growth. Mother Siluana teaches that depression and despair often stem from disconnection from God, unhealed wounds, and living according to false expectations. She emphasizes that joy, meaning, and freedom are found in forgiveness, prayer, and participation in the Sacraments.
Through her guidance, readers are invited to confront their inner struggles, relinquish false self-images, and cultivate authentic relationships with God and others. Her work is both an intimate memoir and a practical roadmap for spiritual healing and transformation in contemporary life.
