St. Benedict teaches monks, and us, how to live a Christ-centered & Christ-ordered life. St. Benedict began a deep walk with the Lord as a hermit, living in solitude for three years. He then started opening monasteries, and developing principles to structure a monk's daily way of life, which we know of today as "The Benedictine Rule."This saint taught monks how to be monks.
