In No Moment Too Small, Norvene Vest focuses on three of the foundations of the Benedictine way of living the gospel: silence, the exploration of Scripture and other Spiritual writings (lectio divina), and the hours of prayer. These essentials of Benedict's sixth-century rule of life offer a practical framework for spiritual growth in our own day, a path to God through the events and people of ordinary lives. In her discussion of lectio-on-life, for example, Vest provides insight on the reading of our lives as the "text" in which we find God's Word written in the ordinary events of daily life. Exercises in silence, holy reading, and prayer for individuals or small groups follow each chapter.
