Episode 1: Changed by the Life of Antony - Desert Fathers in a Year (with Bishop Erik Varden)

Welcome to Desert Fathers in a Year, Episode 1, Changed by the Life of Antony.

Modern life is like a desert, parched for the life-giving water that Jesus promised to the woman at the well. The Desert Fathers offer timeless insights for our growth in self-knowledge, charity, and holiness.

At the start of every New Year, many of us will make resolutions to grow and improve. Let us follow after the pattern of Ponticianus and Augustine: to be changed and inspired by the Life of Antony.

We owe a special thanks to our partners. The Desert Fathers in a Year is...
