I'm using a plan that has me reading through 10 of the Church Fathers during Lent this year. Today was St. Athanasius: Life of Anthony: Chaps. 51-60.

It's starting to get hard for me to keep up with the adventures of Anthony. He seems to be acting in an advisory role of sorts now, dispensing wisdom and healing to those who come to him.

I'm sure I'll get a better understanding of this whole writing the next time I read it.
