- Title
PRACTISING PRESENCE: WISDOM FROM THE RULE ON FINDING BALANCE IN A DIGITAL AGE.
- Authors
McGrane, Colleen Maura
- Abstract
The article presents discussion regarding the use of mobile technology in the 21st century, highlighting how the application of the Rule of St. Benedict can help moderate its detrimental effects. The author points out ways in which too much technology can be disruptive to mindfulness of the presence of God, to engagement with other people with hospitality, and to communal living. A review of the Rule's teachings is then given to reassert those activities in Christian life.
