Paperback. Condition: Good. With typical eloquence and wisdom, in The Way of St Benedict Rowan Williams explores the appeal of St Benedict?s sixth-century Rule, showing it to be a document of great relevance to present day Christians and non-believers at our particular moment in history.For over a millennium the Rule ? a set of guidelines for monastic conduct ? has been influential on the life of Benedictine monks, but has also served in some sense as a ?background note? to almost all areas of civic experience: artistic, intellectual and institutional.The effects of this on society have been far-reaching and Benedictine communities and houses still attract countless visitors, testifying to the appeal and continuing relevance of Benedict?s principles.As the author writes, the chapters of his book, which range from a discussion of Abbot Cuthbert Butler?s mysticism to ?Benedict and the Future of Europe?, are ?simply an invitation to look at various current questions through the lens of the Rule and to reflect on aspects of Benedictine history that might have something to say to us.With Williams as our guide, The Way of St Benedict speaks to the Rule?s ability to help anyone live more fully in harmony with others whilst orientating themselves fully to the will of God.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. In this wide-ranging book, Rowan Williams argues that what we say about Jesus Christ is key to understanding what Christian belief says about creator and creation overall.Through detailed discussion of texts from the earliest centuries to the present day, we are shown some of the various and subtle ways in which Christians have discovered in their reflections on Christ the possibility of a deeply affirmative approach to creation, and a set of radical insights in ethics and politics as well.Throughout his life, Rowan Williams has been deeply influenced by thinkers of the Eastern Christian tradition as well as Catholic and Anglican writers. This book draws on insights from Eastern Christianity, from the Western Middle Ages and from Reformed thinkers, from Calvin to Bonhoeffer ? as well as considering theological insights sparked by philosophers like Kierkegaard and Wittgenstein.Christ the Heart of Creation concerns fundamental issues for Christian belief and Williams tackles them head-on: he writes with pellucid clarity and shows his gift for putting across what are inevitably complex ideas to a wide audience.…
