Touching and humorous, a little monk reveals the significance of quietude in daily life—with charming illustrations.
An invitation to incorporate the peace of silence into our regular spiritual practices. The personal experiences of a Benedictine monk are blended with a story about a little monk and his learning of the Benedictine tradition. Focusing on the importance of silence in our lives despite the noise of the world, the little monk is left to wonder about its value when it is often associated with nothingness. Intertwined with quotes from the Rule of St. Benedict and sets of thoughtful questions and exercises, this story encourages us to slow down, listen deeply, and discover the stillness within.
