You want insights for living? Look to people whose understandings have been practiced for fifteen hundred years. Saint Benedict and Saint Scholastica, his twin sister, established a flexible pattern that has adopted, adapted, challenged–and outlived–myriad cultures. Their sons and daughters today, who devote their time and talents to the school for the Lord’s service launched by the Rule of Benedict, demonstrate a whole range of options that are accessible to anyone. It is a mistake to think that forsaking the world is the Benedictine option. Options (plural) are, instead, for the sake of the world.
