The Imitation of Christ
About this book
Written by the pious monk Thomas á Kempis, this timeless masterpiece offers wisdom and hope by providing precepts we can use to draw nearer to God and learn how best to grow in holiness through obedience and love. In the realm of Christian devotional literature, this religious classic has illuminated countless souls over the ages, transcending the boundaries of denominations, beliefs, and the confines of time. Within these pages, a spiritual journey unfolds intimately in heartfelt prose, providing guidance in the resistance of worldly desires, the significance of mental recollection as a precursor to meditative prayer, and finding gratitude and strength in the soothing embrace of divine consolation and the sacred rite of Eucharistic communion. One of the most influential works in Christian literature, the book is an excellent resource for historians, mystics, and those seeking private devotion.
