The Benedict Option by Rod Dreher
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Already the most discussed and most important religious book of the decade. -David Brooks In this controversial bestseller, Rod Dreher calls on American Christians to prepare for the coming Dark Age by embracing an ancient Christian way of life. From the inside, American churches have been hollowed out by the departure of young people and by an insipid pseudo-Christianity. From the outside, they are beset by challenges to religious liberty in a rapidly secularizing culture. Keeping Hillary Clinton out of the White House may have bought a brief reprieve from the state's assault, but it will not stop the West's slide into decadence and dissolution. Rod Dreher argues that the way forward is actuèally the way back-all the way to St. Benedict of Nurèsia. This sixth-century monk, horrified by the moral chaos following Rome's fall, retreated to the forest and created a new way of life for Christians. He built enduring communities based on principles of order,Rod Dreher works for The American Conservative as a senior editor. He has contributed to the New York Post, The Dallas Morning News, and National Review, and his opinion has appeared in The Wall Street Journal and the Weekly Standard. The Benedict Option, The Small Way of Ruthie Leming, Crunchy Cons, and How Dante Can Save Your Life are among his best-selling novels.
