Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Truly seeking God is the one requirement Saint Benedict establishes for the admission of a candidate to the monastery. Once inside, that is exactly what he or she will be doing. In the first part of the book, From the Rising of the Sun to its Setting, Bernard Bonowitz recounts the ways in which the monk actively seeks God in all the practices and places of the monastic lifein silence and liturgical prayer, work and leisure, solitude and community, spiritual direction and fraternal friendship, the encounter with nature and the encounter with the unsuspected recesses of his or her own heart.Grace is ever at work through the ongoing fidelity of a monk or nun to the monastic vocation. In the second half of the book, The Making of a Monk, Bonowitz describes the gradual transformation that grace effects, transforming the innocently selfcentered novice into the young solemnly professed, content to carry the weight of responsibility within the community, and finally into the beautiful elder, joyfully focused on God and neighbor and filled with desire for eternal life.
