Monastic spirituality can be a guide for life and following Christ not just for monks, but also for Christians living in the world. This is the final lecture on monastic spirituality in the winter/spring 2024 Christian in the World lecture series.
In this lecture from April 13, 2024, Fr. Michael Shrum, OSB, a monk of Mount Angel Abbey, explores how monastic spirituality both forms and is formed by the world around us. He traces the movement of the Holy Spirit in the life of St. Benedict and in his disciples, including the pioneer monks who established Mount Angel Abbey. By looking at the history of Mount Angel Abbey and its monks, Fr. Michael shares how the Holy Spirit moves and works precisely in the time and place in which the monk finds himself, and this is a lesson for all Christians living in the world.
The Christian in the World lecture series, sponsored by the Mount Angel Institute, is an integrated program of study, prayer, and discussion for Catholics who want to live their faith more deeply. The program seeks to help participants gain a more profound understanding of the Scriptures and the Church and to support lay people in exploring how to live their baptismal vocation in everyday life.
