Maybe you missed WEEK 1 of Lent with the Desert Elders that was live on Substack, YouTube, and Facebook. Phoebe Farag Mikhail was my co-host and her perspective as a Coptic Christian is really informative. The Coptics claim the Desert Elders of Egypt as their direct heritage.
I choose a few short clips to whet your appetite, leaving the best parts for you to discover at the YouTube Channel (youtube.com/@Sparkmymuse).
Subscribe to the channel to be a part of the other weeks, or check back to watch the replays.
Besides getting a copy of my book on the Desert Elders, don’t forget to find Phoebe’s work, especially the Lent-related book she wrote called Hunger for Righteousness
Today is a rare audio treat. Those on my launch team for The Way of the Desert Elders who could make it to this gathering shared their insights about the book. I had chance, for the first time, to engage others in a group format, those interested in and supporting the book. Hear what they have to say and what my hopes are for readers. Thanks for your support.
