Book Description

Series: Retreat with | Publication Date: May 1998

Benedict of Nursia hungered for a "better way" to God and lived that example with his Rule.

Both Benedict and Bernard challenge seekers to reduce the God-and-us relationship to its essence, just as Christ's gospel dictates, by way of love, pure and simple.
