Taking the Benedict Option

What it would look like to form intentional Christian communities

I was recently reminded of Rod Dreher’s 2017 book, The Benedict Option. Dreher argues that we need to resist aggressive secularisation by taking our example from St Benedict and form intentional Christian communities. In this podcast, I explore what that means and what that would look like for us.
