About this listen
In this episode of The Voice of the Saints, we step into the desert with St. Anthony the Great, the man who gave birth to Christian monasticism.
From his quiet life in a small Egyptian village to his fierce battles with demons in the wilderness, Anthony’s story is one of faith, humility, and spiritual warfare. For over a century, he became a living witness to Christ — a father to monks, a defender of truth, and a man whose legacy still shapes the Church today.
Listen as we trace his journey through doubt, temptation, and triumph — and hear why the desert that once seemed empty became a city of saints.
✨ This is the voice of St. Anthony.
🎧 For the best experience, we recommend listening with headphones to fully immerse yourself in the music and sound design.
This episode is based on accounts from the Coptic Synaxarium, early church tradition, and other historical sources. While we’ve done our best to ensure accuracy and reverence, some elements have been adapted or dramatized for narrative and production purposes. Our goal is to honour the spirit and message of the saints while making their stories engaging and accessible to modern listeners.
