Preaching during the Counter-Reformation, he is estimated to have converted 70,000 Calvinists in his short lifetime. He was a fervent proponent of the universal call to holiness and spent much of his time guiding lay people on the road to sanctity.

In 1583, De Sales went to the Collège de Clermont (later renamed Lycée Louis-le-Grand) in Paris, then a Jesuit institution, to study rhetoric and humanities.

De Sales is described as intelligent and handsome, tall and well built with blue-grey eyes, somewhat reserved and quiet, and a welcome guest in the homes of the nobility among whom his father had connections. —BOOKS— INTRODUCTION TO A DEVOUT LIFE LETTERS TO PERSONS IN RELIGION LETTERS TO PERSONS IN THE WORLD PRACTICAL PIETY THE CATHOLIC CONTROVERSY THE CONSOLING THOUGHTS OF SAINT FRANCIS DE SALES THE MYSTICAL EXPLANATION OF THE CANTICLE OF CANTICLES THE SECRET OF SANCTITY THE SPIRITUAL CONFERENCES TREATISE ON THE LOVE OF GOD PUBLISHER: AETERNA PRESS

Download or read book Consoling Thoughts on Trials of an Interior Life written by St. Francis de Sales and published by TAN Books. This book was released on 2013-01-24 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Consoling Thoughts on Trials of an Interior Life St. Francis de Sales, beloved Doctor of the Church, gives us treasured insight from the master of spiritual direction. How can the soul persevere in piety in the midst of affliction? How should we conduct ourselves when suffering interior trials? How can we profit from our own faults? St. Francis de Sales explains all this and more. In this masterful collection, St. Francis speaks to every soul on the riches to be gained from suffering trials and temptations, the advantages we can draw from our own defects, and how to choose and carry the best crosses. Also included are uplifting passages on suffering sadness, or what we would now call depression. Readers of Consoling Thoughts will experience firsthand why St. Francis de Sales (1567-1622) is known to history as the Gentle Saint. St. Francis was Bishop of Geneva and a tireless preacher, who yet made time to correspond with numerous souls who wrote him for his insight and guidance. His Consoling Thoughts are compiled from these letters as well as from his other spiritual works.
