Many Christians today are rediscovering the wisdom of St. Benedict's ancient rule, David Robinson, a Presbyterian minister and father of three grown sons, has adapted Benedict's enduring monastic way of life to his contemporary family.
In The Family Cloister Robinson relates the seven key teachings from the Rule that are helping his family maintain peace and stability. These are: Family Design, Family Spirituality, Family Discipline, Family Health, Family Life Together, Family Service and Hospitality, and Family Growth.

Christian families of all sizes will find Robinson's advice Scripturally accurate, timely, and most of all, practical and down-to-earth.
