Truly Seeking God - (Monastic Wisdom) by Bernard Bonowitz (Paperback)

This book is a gem of a read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Benedictine spirituality and the monastic life.

Through vivid descriptions and personal anecdotes, author Bernard Bonowitz recounts the ways in which monks actively seek God in all aspects of their lives, from prayer and work to solitude and community.

The book is divided into two parts: the first explores the transformation of a novice into a young solemnly professed monk, while the second delves into the gradual growth and transformation of an elder monk.

Throughout, Bonowitz emphasizes the importance of grace in the ongoing fidelity of a monk or nun to their vocation.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in exploring the rich spiritual heritage of Benedictine monasticism.
