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.

LISTENING TO THE FATHERS: A Year of Neo-patristic Reflections is a day-by-day prayer journey based on selections from the Early Church Fathers. In this book of prayers, Philip Krill, whose personal mission is 'to promote a Trinitarian vision of deification and contemplative prayer, ' seeks to introduce the reader to the Fathers' vision of divinization in Christ and the universally salvific impact of His Incarnation. It is also his hope that those who pray with these texts will enter more deeply into contemplative prayer.

This collection of his devotional readings, brought together in this format for the first time, bring an unrivalled depth of unassuming scholarship and gentle wisdom within the grasp of the general reader.Praise for Barclay's BBC series: His personal conviction and command of his subject demands attention and he has a gift of adding layers to textures and colour and feel which takes the contemporary viewer back to biblical times.

Who are the Church Fathers? The Church Fathers are a group of Christians in the early church whose writings are highly valued in the Catholic Church. They span from the period immediately after the death of the Apostles roughly until the middle of the eight century. The writings of the Church Fathers are invaluable witnesses to the Christian faith, yet many Christians are not familiar with their writings. With this selection of readings from the Church Fathers, I hope others will gain a greater familiarity with the Fathers and also an appreciation for their works. - From the introduction.
