A journey through the deserts of Arizona, to a new monastery in Sedona, to the sacred sites of the Aegean, to the legendary Mount Athos, Cyprus, and a reunion with Father Maximos whom we met at the Mountain of Silence.
In "Gifts of the Desert," the author continues the exploration of Orthodox practices and teachings, sharing his experience from the live documentation of these, through visits to monasteries and hermitages in Greece and the USA, and through discussions with contemporary charismatic monks.
Kyriakos Markides narrates this journey, magically transporting us to the place and the meaning of the trip with wonderful historical and social elements, reflecting a unique tradition.
