Times
change, but human nature does not. Neither do the daily struggles that all Christians
experience in their walk with the Lord. Today as two thousand years ago we fight
anger, pride, lust, spiritual sloth. Now as then we strive to be more diligent
in prayer, more faithful to the commandments, more patient and charitable toward
others. And in our time, no less than in the earliest centuries of Christianity,
we need wise guidance to direct us on the road to holiness.
In A Year with the Church Fathers , popular Patristics expert Mike Aquilina
gathers the wisest, most practical teachings and exhortations from the Fathers
of the Church, and presents them in a format perfect for daily meditation and
inspiration. The Fathers were the immediate inheritors of the riches of the
Apostolic Age, and their intimacy with the revelation of Jesus Christ is beautifully
evident throughout their theological and pastoral writings: a profound patrimony
that is ours to read and cherish and profit from.
Learn to humbly accept correction from St. Clement of Rome. Let Tertullian teach you how to clear your mind before prayer. Read St. Gregory the Great and deepen your love for the Eucharist. Do you suffer from pain or illness? St. John Chrysostom's counsels will refresh you. Do you have trouble curbing your appetite for food and other fleshly things? St. John Cassian will teach you the true way to moderation and self-control.
A Year With the Church Fathers is different from a study guide, and more than a collection of pious passages. It is a year-long retreat that in just a few minutes every day will lead you on a cycle of contemplation, prayer, resolution, and spiritual growth that is guaranteed to bring you closer to God and His truth. From the Church Fathers we should expect nothing less.
