Description

Learning to discern God's will amidst false paths and temptations is essential to the Christian life. This inner struggle often creates feelings of instability, figuratively casting us into the turbulent sea of discernment-a fluctuating landscape that heightens the navigator's crisis in the face of threatening storms. Yet, when we find refuge "sheltered from the waves," we can sail toward the harbor of God's will. The core of this monograph presents the concept of d_____s__ in Diadochus of Photike as a pivotal element for understanding his Work. Readers will encounter the profound insights of a monk who, through the "university of the desert," serves as a spiritual master, guiding us to know and practice the art of discerning. Carlos Marcelo Singh Mesconi is a Catholic Priest of the Archdiocese of Salta (Argentina) since 2011. In 2018, he obtained the degree of Licentiate in Theology and Patristic Sciences, at the Pontificium Institutum Patristicum Augustinianum (Roma), and later, in 2021, the Doctorate in Theology and Patristic Sciences at the same institution. He is currently Head of the University School of Theology and Philosophy at the Universidad Católica de Salta.
