The first theology of Benedictine life published in the 21st century, this English Benedictine Statement of monastic and missionary identity considers that the life of a Benedictine monk, and nun, requires a continual return, under the impulse of the Holy Spirit and the guidance of the Church, to the Gospel, which is the source and chief guide of all Christian life, and also to the original inspiration of monastic life, which is summed up in the Rule of St Benedict. It offers a framework for reflection and for renewal in evangelical and monastic fervour for each monastery of the Congregation, and at the same time is offered to each individual monk and nun. It provides a substantial theological foundation to the work of those tasked with the promotion of the English Benedictine monastic vocation, and will be of interest to other clergy, religious and interested lay people. 'Monasticism can constitute for all the forms of religious life and consecrated life a remembrance of what is essential and has primacy in the life of every baptized person: to seek Christ and put nothing before his love' (Pope Benedict XVI)

paperback. Etat : Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
