Welcome to Following the Fathers, your gateway into the captivating world of early church history. In our debut episode, we embark on a journey through the life of one of Christianity's most revered figures: Saint Antony. Join host Ben Petersen as we unravel the remarkable story of Antony's humble beginnings and his courageous leap into the ascetic lifestyle. Through the lens of Athanasius' writings, we explore Antony's transformative journey, from his radical decision to embrace solitude in the desert to his profound encounters with spiritual warfare. Discover the timeless wisdom and enduring legacy of this father of the faith as we delve into the depths of his extraordinary life. Our prayer would be that as you listen, you will gain gems of wisdom to practice and see transformation in your own life by the power of God.
