Who were the wise desert seekers known as ammas (mothers) and abbas (fathers)? What is the “desert spirituality” they lived? What can their wisdom and experiences teach us as we seek our own spiritual path? This book study will pursue these and other questions as we read and discuss Oasis of Wisdom by David G. R. Keller.
Participants need to purchase their own copy of the book. Free will offering accepted.
