Abba Moses the Strong, a significant penitent of the Coptic Church, has inspired thousands of Christians around the world through his spiritual discipline and wisdom.
The author of this book delves into the Arabic biography and provides the first English translation to readers. Additionally, select sayings are included to illustrate his ascetical teachings, and the hymns composed in his honor showcase how the Coptic Church revered and upheld his memory through song.
