Some evangelicals perceive monasticism as a relic from the past, a
retreat from the world, or a shirking of the call to the Great
Commission. At the same time, contemporary evangelical spirituality
desires historical Christian manifestations of the faith. In this
accessibly written book Greg Peters, an expert in monastic studies
who is a Benedictine oblate and spiritual director, offers a
historical survey of monasticism from its origins to current
manifestations. Peters recovers the riches of the monastic
tradition for contemporary spiritual formation and devotional
practice, explaining why the monastic impulse is a valid and
necessary manifestation of the Christian faith for today's church.
