约安的母亲是犹利亚纳，她是亚美尼亚的一名基督徒。从年幼时起，约安就离开了他的母亲，隐退到了旷野中，将自己的全部热情投入到对主基督的爱上。在旷野中，约安首先听从他的精神导师法尔姆蒂乌斯的指导，这位导师受到上帝的喜悦，以至于上帝派来的天使每天都带给他面包。之后，年轻的约安决定离群独处，走入一个枯井中，在那里进行祷告、禁食和守夜，渡过了多年的时间。圣法尔姆蒂乌斯从天使那里带来面包给约安。这样约安就不会变得骄傲，上帝的天使不想亲自给约安带来面包，而是让他的精神导师将面包带给他。经过10年在枯井中的潜心修行，圣约安终于安息在主的怀抱。约安的圣髑创造了很多奇迹。约安的一生受到上帝的喜爱并被人们赞美，当时为公元4世纪。
