The New Monasticism:
Dietrich Bonheoffer described this type of monasticism in his book "Life Together". "...the restoration of the church will surely come only from a new type of monasticism which has nothing in common with the old but a complete lack of compromise in the life lived in accordance with the Sermon on the Mount in the discipleship of Christ. I think it is time to gather people together to do this..."
"Christian brotherhood is not an ideal which we must realize; it is rather a reality created by God in Christ in which we may participate." - Bonheoffer
