St. Benedict – “a true master at whose school we can learn to become proficient in true humanism” with Mike Aquilina – Discerning Hearts

Bruce and I had a great conversation with Mike Aquilina about the great St. Benedict, which I love to listen to over and over again. It was shortly after this we became Benedictine Oblates of Mt. Michael Abbey, in Elkhorn, NE. We love the Rule, we love the Oblates, and we LOVE St. Benedict! From Pope Benedict XVI: In fact, the Saint's work and particularly his Rule were to prove heralds of an authentic spiritual leaven which, in the course of the centuries, far beyond the boundaries of his country and time, changed the face of Europe following the fall of the political unity created by the Roman Empire, inspiring a new spiritual and cultural unity, that of the Christian faith shared by the peoples of the Continent. This is how the reality we call "Europe" came into being.
