In \u003ci\u003eHoly Living, \u003c\/i\u003e he writes with profound perception about the life of holiness to which we are called. The range of Williams' frame of reference is astonishing--he brings poets and theologians to his aid, he writes about the Rule of St Benedict, the Bible, Icons, contemplation, St Teresa of Avila and even R.
