YouTube Description
as posted by the channelI've been sitting on this footage for months. When Eliza and I were invited by our friend Fr. Ignacio Gonzalez to spend the weekend at St. Anselm's Abbey, I was torn -- not about going, but over whether to film. I love making videos. I love editing videos and thinking about content creation. But I also knew this was a really unique opportunity. In the end, I chose to only capture a few moments and reflections on my phone so that we could spend the rest of the time unplugged, in prayer, and in conversation with Fr. Ignacio.
It was a beautiful time, and I hope this video expresses some of that.
Oh, and we got a private tour of the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. So, that was cool.
I believe we need more monasteries, and if you want to visit and support this monastery, visit

About Gospel Simplicity:
Gospel Simplicity began as a YouTube channel in a Moody Bible Institute dorm. It was born out of the central conviction that the gospel is really good news, and I wanted to share that with as many people as possible. The channel has grown and changed over time, but that central conviction has never changed. Today, we make content around biblical and theological topics, often interacting with people from across the Christian tradition with the hope of seeking greater unity and introducing people to the beautiful simplicity and transformative power of the gospel, the good news about Jesus.
About the host:
