After completing a theological education, Theophan took monastic vows and was ordained to the priesthood. In 1859, he was consecrated as a bishop, serving first in Tambov, then later in the diocese of Vladimir. Although a kindly bishop and a good administrator, Bishop Theophan grew increasingly weary of public office, and he longed to lead a life of prayer and seclusion. In 1866 he resigned from his active work of diocesan administration and retired to a remote monastery hidden in the great forests at Vyshen. Here he was to remain in seclusion until his death twenty-eight years later. After six years as abbot of the monastery and being an active part of the monastic services, in 1872 Theophan became a recluse. He remained strictly secluded, never going outside his cell, seeing no one but his confessor and the superior of his monastery. As a recluse for the rest of his life, Theophan devoted himself to prayer and asceticism, to correspondence, and to literary work.","brand":"Ancient Faith Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50599209435410,"sku":"9780962271304","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_a745f8c3-e859-4fc5-8278-cd9bc8dcd49f.jpg?v=1732197841","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/raising-them-right-a-saints-advice-on-raising-children-9780962271304","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
