Man on Fire Those familiar with Norbert know him as peacemaker, defender of the Eucharist and strong- willed church reformer. But other characteristics of Norbert have been difficult to decipher. A new book by President Emeritus Tom Kunkel, “Man on Fire: The Life & Spirit of Norbert of Xanten,” brings Norbert to life and shows that he, as most saints did, led a life that was emotional, conflicting, and, indeed, a bit messy. In short, Norbert led a life that was altogether human. Read the Issue |

Waste Not, Want Not Once dinner is done, the counters wiped down and clean dishes put away, it’s time to take out the trash.

Beautiful to Behold St. Augustine saw beauty as a life-saving force in our lives, “a plank amid the waves of the sea.” It is his rule – the Rule of Augustine – that St. Norbert adopted for his order, so it seems especially fitting to reflect upon his words as we explore, in this issue, the nature of the beautiful. |
