Customer Reviews
Listen Episodes
I am so intrigued about the Rule of St Benedict, now having heard the Benedictine Sisters of Mount St Scholastica speak in the 6 Episodes. I listen to one a day as I take my 3 mile walk and each time I listen, I hear something that speaks to my betterment and spiritual growth. I have shared these with my family and friends and I know that however I came by them, the Lord sent you to me. The simplicity and taste of your Order and the love exuded among you Sisters is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing these with us and please make more.
A lovely respite
I love these small, digestible conversations from the Sisters of Mount St. Scholastica. I recently started reading up on St. Benedict and his Rule and this has been a nice supplement to that study.
