Popis: The history of the Russian Student Christian movement (RSСM), a large non-governmental Christian organization in the emigration after the revolution, is well-known. There was still an interesting pre-revolutionary period when, for example, the movement contacted with S.N. Bulgakov. RSСM leaders strived to involve into cooperation Orthodox students, professors and priests. The heads of the movement paid special attention to those professors who had the most authority with students. Those who were ready to cooperate with RSCM, were called by its leader Baron Paul Nikolay as “secret friends of God”.
