The Sayings of the Desert Fathers (Cistercian studies 59)
Published in Paperback by Cistercian Publications (June, 1987)
Amazon base price: $12.95
Average review score: 


If you enjoy religious mysticism but don't feel a great need to sweat in order to understand it, if you are looking for a piece of beauty and simplicity in this world, if you wnat to know in a straightforward manner, how to rise above: this is the book for you. Accessible, succint, sublime.

These people where the preservers of the treasure. Every Christian should aspire to be DOERS of the WORD. As these people where. Rather than mere hearers of the Word. Any Christian would wisely profit from the teachings of these Holy sayings.

Having read this book when it was first published, I find I continue to return to it over and over again for my own prayer and reading and as a book I suggest to others. The simple stories and sayings have a wonderful depth and we can see these ancients committed to simplicity, prayer, and a life of being non-judgmental, hospitable and loving. Excellent.
