Inhabiting the Church: Biblical Wisdom for a New Monasticism (New Monastic Library)

Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove

0/5 ( ratings)

If the church is more than just a building, what could it mean to live in itto inhabit it as a way of life? From their location in new monastic communities, Otto, Stock, and Wilson-Hartgrove ask what the church can learn from St. Benedict's vows of conversion, obedience, and stability about how to live as the people of God in the world. In storytelling and serious engagement with Scripture, old wisdom breathes life into a new monasticism. But, like all monastic wisdom, these reflections are not just for monks. They speak directly to the challenge of being the church in America today and the good news Christ offers for the whole world.
