Desert Fathers Series: Part 2 [Spiritual Warfare: Part 2] | The Harvest (Fr. Matthias Shehad)

Описание: Fr. Matthias Shehad continues his series on the Desert Fathers, focusing on spiritual warfare and the transformative power of God's grace. He explores the life of St. Moses the Strong, a former robber who became a monk through God's mercy, illustrating how spiritual victory comes not by our own strength but through divine aid.

Fr. Matthias shares stories of early desert monks like St. John the Short to highlight the virtues of obedience and fasting as tools in the spiritual battle against temptation. He explains that spiritual warfare is a real struggle involving invisible enemies and allies, emphasizing the need to call on God’s help rather than relying solely on personal effort.

This talk challenges viewers to reflect on their commitment to spiritual growth, inviting them to embrace sacrifice, prayer, and reliance on God as means to overcome sin and draw closer to Him.
