Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written over 400 years ago, Introduction to the Devout Life is still one of the most popular books for those pursuing holiness. St. Francis de Sales explains how to turn that desire for sanctity into resolutions that yield grace-filled results. Themes include: Pursuing a devout life whole-heartedly Incorporating prayer and sacraments into a busy schedule Growing in virtue Battling wisely against temptation Making spiritual progress through daily, monthly, and yearly exercises Whether you are just beginning your spiritual journey or are more advanced in the spiritual life, you’ll be able to apply this timeless wisdom immediately. Let St. Francis de Sales illumine the path to holiness and strengthen your desire to walk that road with the Lord. St. Francis de Sales (1567–1622) was the Bishop of Geneva and a renowned spiritual director. 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. Declared a Doctor of the Church by Pope Pius IX in 1877, St. Francis is still helping to form saints through his many writings, of which Introduction to the Devout Life is the most famous.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 18 edition. Excerpt: ...wishing to revive the famous quarrel which Pius IX. ended by authority with his Encyclical, Inter Multiplices, dated March 21st, 1853, one cannot forbear acknowledging that very little was done in this order for the opinions dear to Don Bosco; and in that little, perseverance had failed. True, reform was as difficult as desirable. Freedom of instruction does not exist in our country of so-O1illed liberty; everywhere except in England and rea-'gium the State, like a jealous dragon, watches e roacjs of study. In France, we are generally easy, content with personal liberty, forgetting it is but a lure without freedom of system and programme. We have the right to instruct, under the strict superintendence, ideas, and scepticism of the State; and we think ourselves free! Experience, even restricted, and the happy results of Salesian colleges, prove the good of Don Bosco's system. It is not irrational that Leo XIII., in his Encyclical, Immortale Dei, put the faithful on their guard against naturalism and rationalism, which he declared incompatible with integrity of faith. What is substantially good in pagan classics serves as an introduction to Christian classics; the natural beauty of one adds additional lustre to the other; thus intimate adhesion between natural and supernatural law is maintained in young minds, distinct, yet united. On this amalgamation not alone education, but Christianity rests. The explanation of the study of philosophy and theology in Salesian Institutions is better given in an extract from the general rule than in any comment. "Section XII. Studies: I. Priests and all members of the Society who wish to be enrolled in clerical train bands, will apply themselves for two years to the study of philosophy, and for four...

Download or read book Holy Women Holy Men written by Church Publishing, and published by Church Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2010 with total page 798 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fully revised and expanded, this new work is the first major revision of the liturgical calendar of the Episcopal Church in more than 40 years! It is the official revision of Lesser Feasts and Fasts and authorized by the 2009 General Convention. All commemorations in Lesser Feasts and Fasts have been retained, and many new ones added. Three scripture readings (instead of current two) are provided for all minor holy days. Additional new material includes a votive mass of the Blessed Virgin Mary, many more ecumenical commemorations, plus a proper for space exploration. For years the oft revised volume, Lesser Feasts and Fasts (LFF), has served parishes and individuals mark part of the holiness of each day by providing Scripture readings, a collect, a Eucharistic preface, and a narrative about those remembered on the church's calendar that day whose lives have witnessed to the grace of God. Holy Women, Holy Men (HWHM) is a major effort to revise, but also to expand and enrich LFF. Where LFF provided two readings (gospel and other New Testament) plus a psalm, HWHM adds an Old Testament citation. Where LFF was limited to few non-Anglicans in the post-reformation period (and few non-Episcopalians after 1789), HWHM dramatically broadens appreciation for other Christians and their traditions. Over-emphasis on clergy is redressed by additional laity, males by females, and "in-church" activities by contributions well beyond the workings of institutional agendas. These almost daily commemorations occupy over 600 of the book's 785 pages, by far the lion's share of its content. Remaining sections address: principles of revision and guides for future revision; liturgical propers for seasons (Advent/Christmas, Lent, and Easter); and new propers for a miscellany of propers usable with individuals (or events) not officially listed in the formal calendar. Two cycles of propers for daily Eucharist are also included, one covering a six week period, the other a two year cycle.
