How the rule of St. Benedict applies to lay people, deacons and diocesan priests

Auxiliary Bishop Joseph Williams of the Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis recently stopped by the seminary to explain how using the Rule of St. Benedict to create a "horarium" -- or schedule -- isn't just for monks.
"You're a human being, not a human doing," said Williams, an alumni of The Saint Paul Seminary. That means building in time to simply be with the Lord and loved ones, while also fulfilling one's daily tasks with intentionality. Properly ordered and discerned, a horarium is actually a gift from God. Bishop Williams breaks down how to create one and how his has helped in his early days as a bishop.

What a wonderful talk on the rule of St. Benedict. A must watch for anyone trying to live a more serene and peaceful life with our Lord at the centre. What a great world we would have if everyone tried to followed this example.

I tried to follow but the acoustics are horrid.

Cry babies may as well renounce citizenship, never study history, and keep crying until someone wakes them up.

If i may make a suggestion💕 Be alone in a quiet room & adjust volume not too loud. Perhaps using an ear pod could help? Am listening now. Praying this helps you🙏🏻

I thought the acoustics would be a problem at first, but wasn't the distraction I expected. Still, a directional mic that doesn't pick up all the reverb would be a better choice for such an environment.
