In contrast to the formalised and official theology of the "founding fathers" of the church, the Desert Fathers were ordinary Christians who chose to renounce the world and live lives of celibacy, fasting, vigil, prayer and poverty in direct and simple response to the gospel. Their sayings were first recorded in the 4th century and consist of spiritual advice, anecdotes and parables. The Desert Fathers' teachings and lives have inspired poetry, opera and art, as well as providing spiritual nourishment and a template for monastic life.

Dealer: Abebooks, Eighth Day Books, LLC
Description: ISBN10: 0140447318, ISBN13: 9780140447316, [publisher: Penguin Classics August 2003] Softcover This translation of the Vitae Patrum has it all: comical stories, thwarted demons, sagacious aphorisms, and hard truths. Open the book at random and you'll find a pearl some fourth century monk sold all for and spent a lifetime seeking. Take Bessarion here, who on his deathbed said, ''A monk ought to be like the Cherubim and Seraphim, all eye.'' The pervasive and lasting influence these bands of men and women who forsook the world in the deserts of Egypt and the Middle East have had on Christianity and Christians would be difficult to overstate. Whether you come out agreeing with their methods, their theology or their practices, no contemplative or questing soul can avoid wrestling with these teachings. At the very least we are sharpened by them, for how else but by their example do we learn the potential depth of ''watchfulness'' and ''discernment,'' or accurately measure our own devotion to truth or desire for holiness save against a commitment so total? Even if we do not, like Bessarion, stand for 40 days and nights in a patch of thorns without sleep, are we not somehow better off for learning from a man who did? 201 pp. [Wichita, KS, U.S.A.] [Publication Year: 2003]
