Totally Devoted: An Exploration of New Monasticism - Softcover
The popularity of TV shows such as 'The Monastery' has made the concept of 'new monasticism' a popular one. But new monasticism is a confusing label. In this challenging and informative book, Simon Cross sets out some of the context for the concepts of monasticism and 'religious life', and explores how some groups in the UK today are imitating the monastic and religious traditions. Here, Simon shows us communities and groups which all, in widely different ways, live as new monastics.

About the Author:
Simon Cross describes himself- I guess I am a husband, father, friend, believer, doubter, anarchist, reader, writer, listener, washer-upper, shorts-wearer, vegetarian, gardener, joker, music lover, scotland rugby fan, and occasional idiot. I live in Grimsby, where I work as a freelance writer, and consultant to people who want to do business in a more ethical way. I have a particular interest in organic cotton, and environmental and social aspects of international development, which I consider to be intrinsically linked to spirituality. I am interested in the movement which is currently known as New Monasticism and last year I wrote a book about New Monastics in the UK, among whom I dare to count myself. The book should be out in May 2010.
