L.I.V.E. - Compassion: Living The Golden Rule

This presentation will address the ancient pre-Christian understanding of the golden rule (do to another what you would want done to you); the theology of the “silver rule” as it was known in the First (Old) Testament and the golden version in the New Testament; Benedict’s spirituality of compassion; and how we embrace compassion in our complicated and at times contentious world today.

St. Gertrude’s L.I.V.E. (Living In a Virtual Environment) offers online programs to further opportunities for prayer, learning, community, and spiritual growth from a Benedictine perspective. We look forward to bringing St. Gertrude’s to you, wherever you are.
