“A fresh new voice in the field of spirituality.”—Divinitas
 
A full spiritual life goes beyond Sunday mornings and bedtime prayers, encompassing the way we work and play, eat and breathe, love and learn. Since ancient times, monastic communities have recognized this and used guidelines to focus on the sacred in all aspects of life and to strengthen their love of God. Today many people continue to find inspiration—and clear, concrete guidance—in these “rules.” This book is designed to help you discover your own spiritual path by drawing on the traditions of a wide variety of ancient and contemporary religious orders to form your own personal rule of life. It includes fascinating historical detail and modern-day examples, and shows us how to develop and express our spirituality through . . .
• Prayer
• Work
• Study
• Spiritual community
• Care of our bodies
• Service
• Hospitality
 
God lives in the small details and the seemingly mundane tasks, in the rhythm of our feet upon the earth as well as in the gaze we focus on the heavens. With this book you can discover the rhythms that millions before you have heard—and follow your own unique steps on the path.
