The Spiritual Life - Writings of Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre

ST. THOMAS AQUINAS SEMINARY BOOKSTORE

SKU: BD469  |  ISBN: 9781685290405

After the posthumous books of Archbishop Lefebvre, The Mass of All Time and Priestly Holiness, here is now a third volume entitled The Spiritual Life.

It gathers in a single volume the words of Archbishop Lefebvre on the subject of the life of the soul. The words of the great bishop are indeed an inexhaustible wellspring of meditation proper to nourish in the faithful their union with God, to encourage them on the field of spiritual combat and to draw them higher in the practice of Christian virtues. 

This book is not an exhaustive treatise on spirituality, but a presentation of its fundamental aspects.

Arranged by Fr. Patrick Troadec, SSPX

This is good from the point of view that this represents his spirituality on the virtues. It does not however represent his writings on the battles he fought against the conciliar church. He would not have written this without mentioning the errors of Vatican II on every other page. Lefevbre upheld tradition and condemned error simultaneously. You cannot separate the two.

OUTSTANDING

In this magnificent volume, Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre (1905-1991) draws on sacred scripture, the writings of the Angelic Doctor of the Church and greatest theologian St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274), other theologians, Doctors and Fathers of the Church, the saints, and other sources.

He mines the profoundness of Aquinas’s Magnum Opus, the “Summa Theologica,” and distills its essence into brief, sublime meditations on aspects of the spiritual life. Every page provides multiple springboards to awe and silent, almost mystical, prayer.

Eternity could never exhaust the never-ending depths of the sacred mysteries discussed in this penetrating work.
