Muze Annotation: Robert Benson, who, early in his life, studied to be a monk, shows that monastic study and spirituality can coexist with life in the modern world. Using the teachings of St. Benedict, Benson directs readers toward a balance of spirituality and worldliness, also using his own complex life as husband, father, and retreat leader as a personal example. Benedict's Rule directs the seeker to integrate prayer, rest, community, and work into daily living, for a richer existence that brings a holy joy into the most mundane moments. Without rejecting today's values, this beautifully written volume will demonstrate how a sixth-century monk's teaching can enrich a modern-day life and lead to deep peace and fulfillment.
