At Saint Meinrad Archabbey, we believe all Christians have an "inner monk": the part of each of us that wants to develop a deep, intense, and personal relationship with God. Honor Your Inner Monk offers a simple rhythm for that life, created by the Benedictine monks of Saint Meinrad in southern Indiana. MORNING AND EVENING PRAYER A new prayer for every morning and every evening of the year, written by the monks of Saint Meinrad. The app knows the time of day and opens to the prayer you need. THE RULE OF ST. BENEDICT A short daily reading from the Rule, following the traditional Benedictine practice of reading the whole Rule three times each year. GUIDED LECTIO DIVINA Pray with Scripture step by step through the ancient practice of lectio divina: reading, meditation, prayer and contemplation. LIVE FROM THE ARCHABBEY CHURCH Join the monastic community in prayer through live streams from the Archabbey Church of Our Lady of Einsiedeln. A GENTLE HABIT Create a free account to keep a history of your prayers, save favorites, and set optional morning and evening reminders on your phone. Quiet milestones mark your faithfulness along the way. They never count missed days against you, and you can turn them off entirely. NEWS FROM SAINT MEINRAD Stay connected with news, events, the podcast, and the blog from Saint Meinrad Archabbey. Honor Your Inner Monk is free and contains no ads.
