Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Enduring Classic: In late 1608, St. Francis de Sales, the Catholic Bishop of Geneva, published his first edition of the Introduction to the Devout Life. It sold out quickly. In September of 1609, he published the second edition with additional material and revisions. A third edition was published in 1610, a fourth in 1616, and his fifth and final edition was published in 1619. On December 28th, 1622, St. Francis died at the age of 55. He was canonized a Saint in 1665 and declared a Doctor of the Church in 1877. The depth and breadth of the Introduction, written by one of the Church's eminent spiritual directors, has made it an enduring classic. De Sale's insights and practical guidance for keeping our lives centered on Christ are timeless and will forever change your life and deepen your devotion to God. LIVE JESUS!Yes, Lord Jesus, live and reign in our hearts forever and ever.Amen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: YOU aspire to devotion, my dearest Philothea, because, being a Christian, you know it to be a virtue extremely pleasing to the Divine Majesty. But since small faults, committed in the beginning of any undertaking, grow in the progress infinitely greater, and become in the end almost irreparable, you must first know what the virtue of devotion is; for since there is but one true devotion, and many which are false and deceitful, if you cannot distinguish that which is true, you may easily deceive and amuse yourself in following some fantastical and superstitious devotion.

Book excerpt: This is a brand new translation of Introduction � la vie d�vote. The last Catholic translation of significant worth appeared more than seventy years ago. Be careful when you read some versions of the work. A number of them were made by our separated brethren, who seem to have an aversion to the teachings of the Church. They gloss over or delete everywhere St. Francis mentions anything related to them. The most sincere among them do say that they have done so, but the greater number of them stay silent, and leave it up to the reader to find out whether or not their translations are faithful to the author's intentions and the teachings of the Church. Some have even left out entire chapters. Henry Benedict Mackey, OSB, the best translator of a number of works of St. Francis, calls previous Catholic translations of the Introduction, "very imperfect as regards style." He adds that the Anglican version is better, but that it "omits essential points of doctrine."In this book, St. Francis de Sales uses a conversational tone to explain the most serious of subjects: a complete program leading to sanctified life, unfolding in easily assimilated stages, and developing logically one out of the other. The careful arrangement and inner balance of the subject matter is reflected in brief topical chapters divided into five parts. After an initial process of dedicating heart and soul to God, we learn how on to pray and make the best use of the Sacraments. Then follows the practice of virtues, and being on guard against temptations. Finally, St. Francis prods us to renew our resolutions to love God, and cheerfully go on with our lives. Along the way, he provides a wide variety of advice suitable for those who live in the practical world, are enamored of God, and who wish to lead a devout life. The appendix has further readings recommended by the author.For 400 years, this small book has been loved and admired everywhere, and has helped, as St. Francis wished, to make true piety known and practiced in every circumstance in life. He said that devotion, far from preventing us from doing our ordinary duties, helps us to perform them better, and that the care of one's family is rendered easier; the love of husband and wife is increased; the service done by citizens becomes more faithful; and all occupations become pleasanter and more agreeable. When the book appeared, Henry IV, King of France, said that it was far beyond what he had expected, and his Queen, Maria de' Medici, sent a copy studded with diamonds to James I of England, who is said to have always carried it on his person, and declared that it was rather the work of an Angel than that of a man.
