A monastery is a place set apart - a place to learn the blessings of powerlessness and that time is not ours but God’s.

Our home and our duties can, just like a monastery teach us those things.

In ten brief and powerful chapters, Fr. Ron explores how monastery life can apply to those who don't live in a cloister:

• Monasticism and Family Life
• The Domestic Monastery
• Real Friendship
• Lessons from the Monastic Cell
• Ritual for Sustaining Prayer
• Tensions within Spirituality
• A Spirituality of Parenting
• Spirituality and the Seasons of Our Lives
• The Sacredness of Time
• Life’s Key Question
