In Seeking God, Esther De Waal crafts a timeless exploration into the depths of human spirituality through the lens of the Benedictine tradition, offering an enlightened pathway for modern seekers. With insight and grace, De Waal invites readers on a journey to cultivate inner peace, balance, and a deeper connection with the divine, regardless of their religious background or level of spiritual practice. This book is a beacon for anyone yearning to break free from the frenetic pace of contemporary life and rediscover the sacred stillness within. By bridging ancient wisdom with today’s spiritual needs, “Seeking God” promises not just to inform but to transform its readers, leading them toward a more centered, fulfilled, and spiritually enriched existence.

Join us for a lunch-hour ten-week book study of Seeking God, The Way of St. Benedict by Esther de Waal.  Drawing from Benedictine Values, and the insights of the Rule of St. Benedict, de Waal offers a practical and deeply spiritual guide for anyone longing to go deeper with God.  De Waal reveals Benedict’s Rule and Values as a way of life accessible to all of us in the ordinary moments of every day. Questions for reflection and discussion will be provided.

Whether you are new to Benedictine spirituality or have long sought to deepen your understanding of the Benedictine Values and the Rule of St. Benedict, this study invites you into meaningful conversation about the questions that matter most.

Together, we will read, reflect, and encourage one another as we seek to embody the values that lead to a meaningful life.
