Simeon Stylites- The Man Who Lived on a Pillar
Manage episode 376413110 series 3472993
From the age of 13, young Simeon knew that he was destined for greater things.
Or at the very least...much higher things.
Join Thomas and John as we talk about Simeon Stylites, a 5th century monk who began an interesting monastic practice: committing your life to living in isolation at the top of a pillar.
It's uncanny to say the least, but it sure gives us a lot to talk about.
