Wisdom Distilled from the Daily: Living the Rule of St. Benedict Today by Joan Chittister, OSB
You may know her as the Catholic liberal commentator, and I'm sure you'll see her on the television news during Pope Benedict's visit, but this beautifully written book might change your opinion about her.
As Richard Rohr, OFM said on the back cover:
"Makes me want to be a Benedictine."
This book helps readers see not only how helpful the Rule can be to contemporary Christians, but also what a balanced, wholistic spirituality exists in Benedictine life today.
