About this listen
Feared across Egypt.
A towering figure whose shadow brought terror, a killer whose name silenced villages, a man who lived for violence, pleasure, and power. But a single divine whisper would send him on a path from bloodshed to baptism — from the sword to the altar.
This is the life of St. Moses the Black — once a robber and murderer, later a humble priest and spiritual father to hundreds of monks, and finally, a martyr crowned in glory. His journey from darkness to light is a living testimony that no past is beyond the reach of God’s grace.
In this episode of Voices of the Saints, we bring you a cinematic, immersive retelling of his remarkable transformation and final stand.
🎧 For the most powerful experience, we recommend listening with headphones.

Our goal is to honour the spirit and message of the saints while making their stories engaging and accessible to modern listeners.
