Oblation presents a collection of prayers inspired by the words of the Rule. Each reflection is prefaced by an excerpt from one of the Rule's seventy-three chapters, and then explores the Benedictine themes of humility, prayer, community, compassion, justice, hospitality, moderation, and reverence. Srubas also offers insights for those interested in incorporating into their prayer lives the Benedictine practice of lectio divina (sacred reading) and related contemplative writing disciplines. Personal, accessible, and deeply relevant, the prayers offered here are for all readers'monastic and non-monastic alike'interested in the practice of Benedictine spirituality.Srubas, Rachel M. is the author of 'Oblation Meditations on St. Benedict's Rule', published 2006 under ISBN 9781557254887 and ISBN 1557254885.
