  • The Monk's Cell

    Ritual and Knowledge in American Contemplative Christianity

    de Paula Pryce ...
    The call to contemplative Christianity is not an easy one. Those who answer it set themselves to the arduous task of self-reformation through rigorous study and practice, learned through the teachings of monks and nuns and the writings of ancient Christian mystics, often in isolation from family and friends.
