Spiritual message of the desert mothers: Syncletica, Sarah and Theodora

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the teachings of the three desert mothers: Syncletica, Sarah and The- odora, focusing on those indications that can support the spiritual development of both lay and con- secrated persons. The basic source is the apophthegmata in the Gerontikon. The analysis of the state- ments of the desert mothers allows us to conclude that the content of many of their thoughts remains valid to the present day. Importantly, all of them are the fruit of the experience of spiritual life, not theoretical, pious considerations.
