  • St. Anthony of Egypt
    Jan 17 2025

    In this episode, Dr. Elizabeth Klein and Taylor discuss St. Anthony of Egypt, or "Anthony the Great," a hermit who lived from around 251 to 356 A.D. Anthony is widely regarded as the most famous of the Desert Fathers, a class of Christians who fled to the wilderness in order to give themselves wholly to prayer and asceticism. This radical devotion to the Lord made the Desert Fathers serious threats to the Evil One. In fact, Satan would often send legions of demons to attack Anthony, yet the Saint always prevailed. Anthony's heroic life of humility and prayer inspired many other great Saints, including Athanasius and Augustine.

Well presented and informative

Every episode is a well presented mini lesson on these Sainted people who played such integral parts in the history of the Church. The passion for the subject matter can be heard from the presenters, keeping the audience engaged. I like that I can listen with my children while driving. It frequently sparks meaningful conversations, helping us continue to grow in our faith and love for the Lord.
