Season 5 Episode 122 - What is a Monastery

Send us a text

In today’s episode of God’s Playbook, Father Rico explores the meaning and purpose of a monastery—a sacred space where monks or nuns dedicate their lives to prayer, work, and community. Drawing from the example of Saint Bonaventure and others, we learn how monasteries are built to foster deep spiritual devotion while remaining largely apart from the world. Whether through praying the Liturgy of the Hours or engaging in humble, self-sustaining work, the monastic life is centred on dependence on God and service to others through intercessory prayer. Tune in to discover the beauty, history, and ongoing importance of monastic life in our Church today.
