Synopsis
The spiritual wisdom of Saint Benedict has endured for centuries and quite literally shaped Westernculture from its inception. Tenets of the order, like its motto and Saint Benedict’s Rule, are just asinfluential for lay people as they are for the Benedictine monks and nuns. The cross and medal of St.Benedict is also among the gifts bestowed by the Benedictine Order. For centuries, it has been a conduit forGod’s power against malicious spirits.The history of this cross and medal—how it first came about, how it was used, miracles attributed toits use—was not easily apparent, nor readily accessible. However, this book successfully delineates thehistory, theology, and potency of the cross and medal of St. Benedict. Drawing from a number of ancientand reliable sources, Fr. Robert Nixon has compiled, translated, and edited a most powerful book on thecross and medal of St. Benedict. With this book, you’ll learn from various saints and holy men as thehistory of St. Benedict’s cross and medal unfolds. In doing so, you will learn about the life and legend ofSt. Benedict, the Father of Western Monasticism, who established the most ancient religious order. SancteBenedicte, ora pro nobis!
