CAN the Dead, or even death itself, teach us any profitable lessons??

A young monk is BEWILDERED by the advice of Elder Macarius, the famous ascetic of ancient Sketis, Egypt.

Maybe it's ridiculous advice--but maybe not...out of faith and obedience, this young monk decides to follow Abba Macarius' advice....

Ever wrestled with the thorny issue of pride and the elusive grace of humility? We've all been there, in the thick of our own internal battles. Get ready to push past your limits as we recount the stirring tale of Brother Peter, an earnest young monk beset by the stings of criticism. Guided by the sagacious Abba Macarius, Peter embarks on an unorthodox journey to the heart of spiritual resilience. This episode isn't just a discussion; it's a roadmap to embracing humility and finding peace amid the chaos of scorn and adulation.

Join Jeremy and Nick, your conduits to the ancient wisdom of the Desert Fathers, as they analyze a narrative brimming with symbolism and life-changing insights. We're not merely telling a story; we're inviting you to experience a transformation alongside Brother Peter, whose quest for inner peace leads to a graveyard, of all places, and a lesson from the silent teachers who dwell there. With hearty doses of wit and wisdom, this conversation promises to be an enlightening companion on your own spiritual voyage. Come, let's uncover the secret to becoming unaffected by the world's noise together, through the timeless teachings of holy Abba Macarius.
