The Rule of St Benedict, just 9000 words long and written 1500 years ago, has proved to be one of the most timeless, influential and lasting of all texts. Its realism about human character, its extraordinary practical wisdom and its original recipe for creating a work/life balance have made it famous way beyond the monastic communities whose lives it has shaped for centuries. Today many secular people are finding that the Rule makes sense of their lives too. This book simply consists of the Rule in a modern language and an introduction to the seven basic elements of Benedictine spirituality.

On the fateful morning of October 30th, 2016, the ancient monastery of Norcia - the birthplace of St. Benedict - was brought to it's knees. For three months the region had been rocked by a series of earthquakes that progressively weakened the towns of the Italian countryside. On Sunday morning the 30th, the noble Basilica built over the birthplace of St. Benedict & St. Scholastica was reduced to rubble. The monks, who only in the year 2000 had returned to revive western monasticism at its very birthplace, have been displaced. They continue to remain in the region and minister to the people of the town and hopefully soon to begin the work of rebuilding.The monks of Norcia and the displaced townspeople need your help and support. Exactly ten years to the day before the earthquake, I spent a week discerning the monastic life with the monks in Norcia and was given a copy of the Rule by Fr. Benedict, the sub-prior. That gift has had a profound impact on my life, and so I've decided to collect the most significant passages from the Rule that can form a guide for everyday life of people like you and me, and share it with you. Every sale of this work contributes to the restoration of Christian life and worship in the town of Norcia (Nursia). With your purchase of this book you can be assured that 70% of the author's proceeds are going to support the work of the monks and the rebuilding of their venerable monastery.It is my sincere hope that in the not too distant future we may all be able to meet together and worship in the holy place that our collective contributions have helped to rebuild.These selected passages from St. Benedict's Rule for Monks (newly translated and topically organized) capture the core essence of the wisdom that has guided the organization and stability of the worldwide movement of Benedictine Monasticism for over 1,400 years. Benedictine Monasteries guided by these principles have been at the heart of cultural renewal and civilization throughout the western world, and these same principles have the power to guide and transform modern society. The wisdom of St. Benedict is not only for cloistered monks, but has a spiritual power to transform your own life with the peace and stability granted by God, as well as the practical impact on sanctifying your work and everyday life. It is my hope that applying these principles as a rule and guide for your life will empower you to carry out the work of cultural renewal and Gospel evangelization in our own day, bringing much needed peace to a world longing for Christ.

For over 1,500 years, believers from all Christian traditions have looked to St. Benedict, the patriarch of Western monasticism, for spiritual wisdom. And rightly so: his rule has shown how one may experience a simple, holy, and common sense life, despite the increasingly busy pace of our daily existence. The latest addition to Liguori's popular series of seasonal meditation books provides not only Scripture readings for the seasons of Lent and Easter, but pairs them with a daily selection from the cherished writings of St. Benedict. This book encourages the reader to set aside time each day to reflect upon a specific Scripture passage while providing a suggested activity for Christian living during the Lenten season. In the Lent/Easter seasons when we focus on Christ's great sacrifice for our salvation, we can renew our alertness to the many ways in which our own lives can model his and be other-centered. And like St. Benedict we can come to know God's spirit through the habit of prayer and meditation. View sample pages. "Paperback"
