🏜️ Welcome to Desert Fathers in a Year, Episode 17: The Fear of God.
In this episode of Desert Fathers in a Year, we explore the profound teaching of Abba Peter on the "fear of God." Far from nervous anxiety, this fear is a reverent awe of God’s divine majesty, as Abba Isaiah’s wisdom explains that true fear of God arises from trusting Him alone. Drawing from Isaiah’s vision of God’s glory and the refining fire of faith, we unpack how trusting God in hardship—illness, loss, or betrayal—leads to redemptive purity. Discover how the Desert Fathers guide us to balance childlike trust with worshipful reverence.
Key Topics Covered:
Abba Peter’s definition of the fear of God as trust in God aloneIsaiah’s vision of divine glory and its transformative impactThe refining fire of faith: Trusting God amidst life’s trialsBalancing reverence and trust in the Christian spiritual journeyLessons from the Desert Fathers on awe and worshipWhy Listen? This episode offers deep insights into the fear of God as reverent trust, perfect for those seeking spiritual growth, Christian wisdom, or understanding early Church teachings. Join us to explore how faith transforms fear into awe.

🏜️ Welcome to Desert Fathers in a Year, Episode 16: The Monk and the Actress.
Discover the profound story of Abba Pambo, a Desert Father, whose encounter with an actress in Alexandria reveals deep Christian compassion and humility. In this episode of Desert Fathers in a Year, we explore Pambo’s tears, sparked by the tragic loss of a soul and his own reflection on spiritual zeal. Learn how his relationship with St. Athanasius bridges the institutional and charismatic Church, and why his response to a "public sinner" offers a timeless pastoral model. We delve into themes of compunction, intercession, and speaking truth in love, inspired by the Desert Fathers’ wisdom.
The blessed Athanasius entreated Abba Pambo to come down from the desert to Alexandria. Coming down, he saw an actress there, and began to weep. When those who were with him asked why he was weeping, he said: ‘Two things moved me. First, the loss of this woman. Secondly, the fact that I do not have such zeal to please God as she has to please shameless men’.Key Topics Covered:
Pambo’s emotional response to an actress and its spiritual significanceThe bond between Athanasius and the Desert FathersWhy compassion, not condemnation, defines Christian correctionLessons in humility: Learning from those unlike usThe Desert Fathers’ view on redirecting longing toward GodWhy Listen? This episode unpacks how Pambo’s story challenges us to embrace empathy and self-reflection in our faith. Perfect for listeners interested in Christian spirituality, Desert Fathers, compassion, humility, and early Church history. Join us for insights that resonate today.
