They were the 'apostles of the ordinary' - two great saints, centuries apart, united in their appreciation of the little things. St. Benedict called his rule 'little Rule for beginners.' St. Therese called her way of spirituality 'the little way.' By bringing the two of them together, we can see how to turn our ordinary day-to-day living into an extraordinary spiritual life. Benedict and Therese show us that God is in the little things. |
