The Way of the Desert: Daily Bible Readings through Lent to Easter
Desert Monasticism, Lent & Easter, Monasticism & New Monasticism
In the Bible the desert is a place of punishment and discipline, but also of blessing and love’s reawakening. Both Jesus and the people of Israel before him spent time in the desert, learning what it meant to be chosen and loved and holy. Yet while the people of the exodus frequently got it wrong, providing some cautionary tales for us to learn from, Jesus himself constantly got it right, offering a perfect model for us to follow.
In The Way of the Desert Andrew Watson takes us on a Lenten journey from Ash Wednesday to Easter Day, from the parting of the Red Sea to Israel’s entry into the promised land. Combining these Old Testament scriptures with insight from the Gospels, he reveals the continuing relevance of the exodus story to all who would seek to follow Christ.

The Way of a Pilgrim and The Pilgrim Continues His Way
Orthodox Tradition, The Inner Journey
Translated by R.M. French
In The Way of a Pilgrim, an unknown pilgrim describes his wanderings through mid-nineteenth-century Russia and Siberia, from one holy place to another in search of the ways of prayer. R. M. French’s superb translation conveys the charm of the original text and communicates brilliantly the spiritual truths of the gospel.
In the much loved sequel, The Pilgrim Continues His Way, the narrator shares more of his story, as desire burns within him to discover deeper experiences of prayer, and to draw closer to the heart of God.

Letters from the Desert
Desert Monasticism, Monasticism & New Monasticism, Scripture & Prayer
At the age of 44, after a prominent career as a Catholic activist, Carlo Carretto was summoned by a voice that said: 'Leave everything, come with me into the desert. I don't want your action any longer, I want your prayer, your love.' Carretto responded by leaving for North Africa, where he joined the Little Brothers of Jesus and embraced the example of Charles de Foucauld.
Among the fruits of Brother Carlo's response was Letters from the Desert, the first and most popular of his many books. Its life affirming message has inspired countless readers in a dozen languages. Simply, it reminds us that in the evening of our lives we will be judged by love.
