The Little Flowers Of The Desert Brothers (Spirituality Series)

The Little Flowers of the Desert Brothers partakes of the simplicity, spiritual insight, and humor of The Sayings of the Desert Fathers and the The Little Flowers of St Francis, yet is entirely reported from the present day world and its monastic life. This is a series of anecdotes, gathered from many years of experiences visiting Roman Catholic monasteries in the Western United States. Everything is recorded by the author from real life - the bulk of it from first-hand experience. Some of the anecdotes the author reports as a third party, with a close friend at a monastery as a source. Real names are not indicated, only pseudonyms, to protect the privacy of those mentioned. It is meant almost as a form of poetry that shows the human-ness, the inspiration, the challenges.... and ultimately the "treasure stored up in Heaven" found in monastic life.
