Lenten fasting became law at the Council of Aix in 837AD.

Charlemagne was determined to see that it was observed, by force if necessary. Any baptised Lombard or Saxon chieftain who failed to do proper penance had his head cut off, an uninviting prospect for any budding Christian!

Hello,

Enjoy this updated version of an older episode about feasting and fasting in the desert nearly 2000 years ago from the first Christian fathers, the monks who made the religion of Christianity what it is.

How did they live, survive and thrive? What did they eat? And how this strict lifestyle evolved to monasticism as we know it in Europe medieval period?

All the above and much more, with recipes from the past in this updated marathon episode!

Enjoy!
