The Spiritual Life: A Comprehensive Manual for Catholics Seeking Salvation
A manual to help you hold fast to Faith in a barbaric, faithless world.
Written by the French priest Jean Nicolas Grou (who died in 1803), The Spiritual Life might seem on the face of it to be an odd choice for the embattled Catholics of France to preserve at the risk of the guillotine. After all, it only gives a few small hints here and there of the great crisis that was engulfing France. Yet preserve it they did.
A closer look at its contents reveals why: it’s a comprehensive, uncompromising handbook to help Catholics better deal with the obligations and particular problems of the spiritual life. As such, it teaches Catholics what they need to know and to do when all the customary comforts and supports of life have been swept away. It’s a call to true believers to do what the angel tells the Church of Sardis in the Book of Revelation: “Awake, and strengthen what remains and is on the point of death, for I have not found your works perfect in the sight of my God.”
Paperback. 176 pages.
