Description
The Benedictine Handbook provides a comprehensive guide to living in harmony with Benedictine spirituality. This manual is designed for those seeking to deepen their understanding and practice of monasticism, including oblates and associates of Benedictine communities. Within its pages, you'll find the text of the Rule of St Benedict, an introduction to the essentials of Benedictine spirituality, a simple daily office, and other prayers. The book also features a "who's who" section introducing 100 notable figures from the Benedictine tradition, as well as guidance on living the Rule in everyday life and exploring the global reach of the Benedictine family. Written by a team of experienced authors, including Esther de Waal, Columba Stewart, Kathleen Norris, and Patrick Barry, The Benedictine Handbook is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to cultivate a deeper sense of spirituality and connection with the world around them.
