Product Description

•••••
Francis de Sales’s Introduction to the Devout Life has remained a uniquely accessible and relevant treasure of devotion for nearly four hundred years. As Bishop of Geneva in the first quarter of the sevenjteenth century, Francis de Sales saw to the spiritual needs of everyone from the poorest peasants to court ladies. The desire to be closer to God that he found in people from all levels of society led him to compile these instructions on how to live in Christ. Francis’s compassionate Introduction leads the reader through practical ways of attaining a devout life without renouncing the world and offers prayers and meditations to strengthen devotion in the face of temptation and hardship.

Introduction to the Devout Life
(Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada) | March 19th, 2023
This book was recommended for everyone to read, at Mass one Sunday morning by our very own Franciscan Father Christopher. He started: “We are all called to be Saints.” He then recommended we read this book. Starting it is full of “Hidden gems.” “The hidden Pearl.” It is the most powerful, beautiful book a Christian can read to help and guide them on our earthly spiritual journey. Thank you Father Christopher for your recommendation. It is well worth reading.
