Book Launch of: ‘Oneness – The Dynamics of Monasticism’

(edited by Stephen Platten and published 2017 SCM Press)

‘The Monastic Tradition and the Contemporary Church’

Wednesday 11th October 2017

4.00pm – 6.00pm

Short lectures will be delivered by Fr George Guiver CR and Rt Revd Dr Stephen Platten.

“Oneness” considers the role small-group monastic life plays within the life of the contemporary church. Using a focus on the life, practice and history of the Shepherds Law community as a starting point, the book broadens the discussion to consider how such communities negotiate the boundary between the solitary life and life within their community.
