One way in which Fresh Expressions of church are springing into life is through 'new monastic' or 'intentional' communities, groups of individuals and families living in the same geographic area or connected virtually who share a simple rule of life. Cave ~ Refectory ~ Road explores how traditional monastic life is helping to shape a new flowering of Christian community today. It traces the roots of 'new monasticism' and draws on the classic elements of monastic life to suggest how this ancient wisdom, learning and spiritual practice might be reinterpreted for new settings.

A handbook for all who are exploring 'intentional living', its rich and inspiring teaching is clustered around these themes: The cave: the place of stillness, prayer and withdrawal that can inspire a new engagement with the mystery of God, the refectory: how monastic practices of hospitality can create communities that make a difference in the world and the road: how the example of the friars can lead to creative and loving engagement with public life.

Portrait

Ian Adams

After leaving University Ian set up his own business, 'Impala Displays', which became one of the fastest growing businesses in the U.K. In 1989 he won 'Young Business Achiever of the Year', and with all his success, the big house and expensive cars had a seemingly perfect life. In the1990's recession however his company went into administration and he lost everything, which led to him becoming very spiritual. In 2003, after many years of spiritual study and successful application of that spiritual understanding in business, he set up his company 'Higher Purpose'. He dedicated himself to coaching company leaders to become great through the far superior spiritual, values based approach rather than the conventional materialistic 'what's in it for us' approach. Highly creative and innovative and an outstanding leader, Ian has had exceptional success in business and coaching all his adult life. He has always recognised the importance of understanding and developing not just his key staff, but everyone who has worked for or has been associated with him. He has an acute understanding of human nature and has always derived great pleasure in helping others to grow and fulfil their potential. There is no one he can't advise or help, so long as they have positive intentions and a desire to grow. From the first day that Ian made conscious connection with his Guardian Angel, in February 2007, his intuitive ability quickly accelerated and still continues to increase and develop to a very high degree. His Guardian Angel, Juliette, will answer most questions he asks; but when it comes to anything to do with the meaning of life, our reason for existence and human behaviour, Ian finds that he intuitively knows the answer to anything that anyone would ever want to know.

Pressestimmen

'This is a very gentle, ruminative approach to the subject - not so much a guide book or rule book, but a poetry book.' 201102 'Ian Adams' excellent book takes three elements of the historic monastic tradition and recasts them for the benefit both of individuals seeking a deeper walk with God and for the many emerging new monastic communities in the UK and beyond ... This is an easy book to read, and at 99 pages not a long one ... Read chapter by chapter it would provide excellent material for a series of Third Order small group meetings.' -- David Walker, Bishop of Dudley 201201
