From Monastery to Wilderness: St. Onuphrius the Great

In the Egyptian wilderness, St. Onuphrius the Great learned the hidden life that shelters the soul in God. This long-form Orthodox Christian reflection follows his path from cenobitic monastery near Hermopolis to the deep desert, where obedience, fasting, prayer, and ascesis prepared him for solitary struggle. Through the witness of Abba Paphnutius and the Synaxarion, we remember one of the great Desert Fathers and his life of theosis, providence, and unceasing prayer. #OrthodoxChristianity #Saints #DesertFathers #Monasticism #StOnuphrius --- One saint, one teaching, every day. The faithful return.
