The Wisdom of Benedict
Price: $1.95
By Right Reverend Justin DuVall, OSB. In this cornerstone of the Notes from a Monastery series, the abbot of Saint Meinrad Archabbey explains how the treasure of spirituality in monastic practices is available and adaptable to Christian men and women from many walks of life. By opening our minds to the wisdom of St. Benedict, Archabbot DuVall says, we engage in the process of conversion. The tools of the trade, whether for monks or anyone else, are prayer, holy reading, work, community living, and hospitality. As Archabbot DuVall says, "Monks don't do different things; they just do them differently. But it is the difference between mindless performance of any task and mindful living in God's presence, expressed in practice.
This new series of booklets brings to life and ties together the themes and values of the monastic way of life in the Benedictine tradition to assist ordinary people committed to seeking God in their everyday lives. Written by religious and lay authors familiar with the Benedictine way of life, each title provides inspirational and practical guidance on seeking God by preferring nothing to the love of Christ -- all in a topical, concise and accessible format. Booklets feature original artwork by Brother Martin Erspamer, OSB. 12 pgs.
