Although the sixth-century Rule of St. Benedict has primarily been applied to monastic life and was originally written for the monastic situation can it also pertain to families? Absolutely, says David Robinson, a Presbyterian minister and father of three. In The Christian Family Toolbox: 52 Benedictine Activities for the Home, Robinson applies principles from the Rule to the oft-chaotic norms of family living. "At the heart of Benedictine wisdom we find a family cloister," he notes, offering specific suggestions for communal prayer, mutual work and a ministry of hospitality.
