CWN Editor's Note: Bishop Erik Varden of Trondheim, Norway will host a podcast series on “The Desert Fathers in a Year,” in cooperation with EWTN and Exodus 90.
In the series, which will launch on January 1, Bishop Varden—a convert to Catholicism who became a Trappist monk and was ordained as a bishop in 2020—will introduce his audience to the early Christian monastic tradition, which he describes as “a laboratory for Christian faith and practice.”
Bishop Varden has attracted a wide audience for his reflections, available in English on his Coran Fratribus site.
