Synopsis

Christians everywhere are discovering the timeless relevance of spiritual classics by outstanding saints from the past. Many of these writings are not easily found in Christian bookstores or even public libraries. And many thoughtfull believers are ever intimidated by reading works from the fourth or even fourteenth centuries. That's unfortunate, because these classics contain solid, accessible wisdom that can help today's Christians grow stronger and deeper in faith. The Treasury of Christian Spiritual Classics contains works by five important thinkers spanning 1,300 years. The collection includes: The Confessions of St. Augustine by Saint Augustine; The Practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence; Revelations of Divine Love by Julian of Norwich; The Imitation of Christ by Thomas a Kempis; Selection of Sermons on the Song of Songs Bernard of Clairvaux. Each selection begins with a contemporary introduction to help you understand the author, his or her times, and the work's relevance for today. This book can be your key to a lifetime of spiritual growth through the words of those who have passed on what they learned about following Jesus.
