Introduction to a Devout Life: From the French of St. Francis De Sales
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in the seventeenth century, offers a comprehensive guide to living a devout life. The author, a renowned figure in his time, provides a practical approach to cultivating a deeper spiritual connection, especially for those who live in the midst of secular life. He challenges the notion that devotion is solely for those who have retired from the world, demonstrating that a devout life is possible and indeed enriching for those engaged in family life, business, or even courtly affairs. The author emphasizes the importance of careful self-reflection and purification from sin, both mortal and venial, as essential first steps towards achieving spiritual growth. He then introduces a series of meditations designed to guide the reader through a process of detachment from worldly affections and a gradual ascent towards a more profound love for God. This journey includes contemplating God's creation, the purpose of human existence, the benefits of divine love, and the consequences of sin. The book presents a profound exploration of devotion as a life-long process, a path marked by both challenges and rewards, ultimately leading to a more complete and fulfilling life. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781334497193_0
