Bishop of the Diocese of Tulsa and Eastern Oklahoma
Clear Creek Monastery cannot be explained; it must be experienced to be understood. The Kings allow us to see the monastery and its history through their attentive eyes and Clear Creek's importance to our world. This book captures the beauty of an ancient community and its contemporary impact.
—Deron Spoo, Pastor, First Baptist Church Tulsa,
Regular Retreatant to Clear Creek Monastery
In Cowboy Bethlehem, Ted and T. Gavin King capture the history and character of Our Lady of Clear Creek Abbey a Roman Catholic redoubt in the midst of little country Baptist churches. The reader learns about the daily routine of the monks, the lay community growing on the farms and ranches around the abbey, and the lives and backgrounds of the monastery's leadership. The Kings trace the spiritual and intellectual lineage of Clear Creek Abbey back to John Senior and the Pearson Integrated Humanities Program at the University of Kansas, a 1970s experiment in Great Books education that led some of its students to Fontgombault Abbey in France and ultimately to its daughter foundation in Oklahoma. Cowboy Bethlehem is food for thought for anyone pondering Christian formation and community in a world increasingly hostile to the faith.
