Dr. Atef Meshreky was devoted to his studies in medicine before being called by the Lord to be set apart and to be wholly committed to Him. In response to, and in obedience to the Lord’s calling, He became a consecrated celibate brother of the Coptic Church in Egypt. He began to live a life of serving the Lord in full time ministry, but faced spiritual conflicts and struggles.  He desired a life of holiness, but when he compared his spiritual reality to the picture of the true Christian life portrayed in the New Testament, he realized that there was a disparity. Recurring sins and weaknesses remained inside him, which caused him to deeply yearn for a transformation that could manifest the grace of the New Testament. Therefore, he entered into spiritual seclusion in one of the desert monasteries. During his years of seclusion of worship, fasting, praying, and studying the word of God, the Lord visited him to teach him rich mysteries and to guide him unto the way of the deep life in the Spirit. He who had already completely memorized the New Testament, also spent many years of seclusion studying the word of God, from Genesis to Revelation, spiritually experiencing the Scriptures in a new and deep way. In his 40 years of ministry and seclusion, the Lord led him to discover the wells of the early fathers of the Church. These wells, which are forgotten by Christians today, has rich springs and sources of living water of the Church of God that can lead us into deep and fulfilling worship in the Spirit. He has since dedicated himself to share and commit to the body of Christ, what he has received from the Lord - in order to deepen the spiritual life enabling the Church to face the challenges of the end times, reunite the mind of Christ in the Church east and west, and to prepare the bride for the second coming of Christ and for the wedding of the Lamb.
