“Being Benedictine--a monastic or an oblate--means trying a little harder to show the courtesy of love for one another, to see Christ in the people with whom, we live, work and pray--and to look for Him even in the people with whom we disagree.”
Benet Tvedten, How to Be a Monastic and Not Leave Your Day Job: An Invitation to Oblate Life

“Don't seek God elsewhere. Seek God now, right here, in the routine things that have to be done. Find God in the ordinary circumstances of your life.”
Benet Tvedten, How to Be a Monastic and Not Leave Your Day Job: An Invitation to Oblate Life

“One cannot conclude that there are no great saints just because no great miracles are worked. The true estimate of life, after all, lies in acts of virtue, not in the display of miracles. There are many, Peter, who without performing miracles, are not at all inferior to those who perform them.”
Benet Tvedten, The View from a Monastery
