St. Bernard gave up his secular life early on and took up the monastic life along with many others he befriended. He was known for his great love of the brethren, powerful words, austere practices and holy life. Eventually he was chosen to start a new monastery called Clairvaux.

His sanctity became well known through Catholic Europe and he became a key figure in the councils of that time and also in helping the Continent settle on a new Pope. He died in 1153 and was canonized a saint in 1174. In 1830 he was declared to be a doctor of the church.

St. Bernard sermons demonstrate his intimate knowledge of scripture, his piety and his devotion to the Virgin Mary.
