Three Religious Rebels, Forefathers of the Trappists

They are known as men of silence and wonder, men of the strict observance of the rule. Modern day Trappists find their roots in a Cistercian mother that brought the spirit of St. Benedict back to the letter of the rule. This little "Saga of Citeaux" offers an insightful glimpse into the lives of 3 Rebellious Monks that brought new life to St. Benedict's rule with the ideal of "simplicity, poverty and solitude". Written as a dramatic dialogue, this book illuminates the lives of St. Robert, St. Alberic and St. Stephen Harding, who taught the first Cistercians how to be "gallant to God" and make "no compromises." Love for God and complete surrender to his will moved these three rebels to take chances in order to make reparation to the Sacred Heart by "making God forget" those who don't remember Him in their daily lives. The story's inspiring phrases encourage the reader in his own spiritual life. For the religious, he is inspired to follow his own rule with as much love and fervor as these men lived-out on their road to sanctity.
