This course is available exclusively as an onsite intensive. Please refer to the dates listed above for the specific onsite sessions.
Description: Christian spirituality as a broad term has been defined as the constellation of beliefs and values of the Christian person that leads to and animates a way of life.
St. Benedict of Nursia (480-548 AD) in his founding and ordering of lay
monastic communities has laid out in his Rule a spirituality that is deeply
Biblical, communal and practical. This intensive will explore Benedict’s
approach and its implications for those who wish to embrace a way of life
that is grounded in stability, obedience and conversion of life and is
sustained by rhythm, balance and a persistent practice of hospitality towards
others.
