In January of 2010, a small group of parishioners at St. Martin's Episcopal Church in Williamsburg, Virginia, joined together in morning prayer and reflection on the Rule of St. Benedict. We began reading Joan Chittester's daily reflections on the Rule in her book, The Rule of Benedict: Insights for the Ages, and continue as community with daily readings, in Morning Prayer at the church on Wednesdays, and on these pages.

Laws and Rules
"Law is simply a candle on the path of life to lead to the good we seek." Obedience to the law is not an end in itself; when it becomes the end, it becomes an idol. Obedience to the law should lead to greater good.
