Centering/Contemplative Prayer

Everything Belongs: The Gift of Contemplative Prayer by Richard Rohr

Intimacy with God: An Introduction to Centering Prayer by Thomas Keating

New Monasticism/Monastic Living

A Monk in the World: Cultivating a Spiritual Life by Wayne Teasdale

Wayne Teasdale’s A Monk in the World is perhaps one of the most cited books on the contemplative new monastic life. Written in the late 90’s and published in the early 2000s, Teasdale’s book distills the essence of the new monastic movement in its infancy. His other book, The Mystic Heart, is another well-beloved book in the new monasticism field.

Inhabiting the Church: Biblical Wisdom for a New Monasticism by Jon Stock, Tim Otto, and Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove

As in most things, having a biblical foundation for the understanding of a movement is critical. Stock, Otto, and Wilson-Hartgrove’s book equips the new monastic with the scriptural basics of the movement, allowing it to move within the theological frameworks of our day.

Living Faithfully in a Fragmented World: From ‘After Virtue’ to a New Monasticism by Jonathan Wilson

The Monk Within: Embracing a Sacred Way of Life and A New Silence: Spiritual Practices and Formation for the Monk Within by Beverly Lanzetta

The New Monasticism: An Interspiritual Manifesto by Rory McEntee and Adam Bucko

The Seven Story Mountain by Thomas Merton

Another great read about Thomas Merton is Jon Sweeney’s Thomas Merton: An Introduction to His Life, Teachings, and Practices. Both are wonderful for listening on audiobook.
