Anthony of Egypt, a young man born into wealth and comfort, faced a question that would alter everything: What does it profit a man to gain the world, yet lose his soul?This is the story of a life forged in fire, where temptation lurked in shadows, visions illuminated the divine, and radical solitude became the crucible of holiness. From confronting demons-both visible and invisible-to guiding disciples who would carry the flame of monasticism across continents, Anthony's life is a testament to courage, faith, and unwavering obedience.\u003cbr\u003eThrough gripping narrative, vivid descriptions, and profound spiritual insight, this book takes you from Anthony's first steps into the desert to his final, peaceful surrender at the age of 105. Witness the birth of the monastic movement, the wisdom of the Desert Fathers, and a legacy that shaped not only the Church but the very foundations of Western civilization.\u003cbr\u003ePerfect for seekers of faith, lovers of history, and anyone inspired by stories of human struggle and divine triumph, Saint Anthony of Egypt challenges you to confront your own attachments, face the deserts of your life, and embrace a path of radical devotion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gideon Marsh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798248169122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/12\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.46lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.32d","brand":"Gideon Marsh","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48520247771391,"sku":"9798248169122","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ad7f97f0-032d-4adb-b265-a403ad553e22.jpg?v=1778741615","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/saint-anthony-of-egypt-gideon-marsh-9798248169122","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
