LUP_0829417877.jpg Benedict's Way
$11.95
In the sixth century, a monk named Benedict devised a code of practical principles by which he and his fellow monks could live together and grow in Christian spirit. Centuries later, the Rule of St. Benedict continues to guide and nurture men and women—both inside and outside monasteries—who seek to live a balanced spirituality. This contemplative guide is for individuals of all faiths in search of timeless wisdom.

In thirty short chapters, author Lonni Collins Pratt and Father Daniel Homan, O.S.B. provide stories, reflections, prayers, and actions through which the reader can understand Benedict's principles and allow them to shape ordinary life. This small but powerful book can be used for personal retreat, spiritual reading, and general reflection.

CARD TEXT:
Born in Italy around 480, Benedict abandoned the world at an early age to live as a hermit. The life of this holy man soon attracted many followers, and Benedict eventually established a monastery at Monte Cassino, near Rome. It was there that Benedict composed his famous Rule, which became one of the most influential documents in the history of Western Europe.
In the Rule, Benedict encouraged his followers to lead lives of simplicity and humility, preferring "nothing to the love of Christ." Today thousands of men and women all over the world continue to follow the way of life established by Benedict.
Saint Benedict died at Monte Cassino on March 21, 547, and his feast day is celebrated on July 11.
