To be human is to experience times of wilderness. That is, wilderness the way Israelites understood and lived it. In modern times we tend to think of wilderness as a lush getaway, a place of refuge from our urban environment, but in the Scriptural context it is a place of desolation and lack and need, a place of testing, and a time of drawing nearer to God, learning to be completely and utterly dependent on Him. Fr Geoffrey and Fr Yuri discuss how the theme of wilderness appears both in Scriptures and in our liturgical life.
