Spiritual Combat: How to Win Your Spiritual Battles and Attain Inner Peace

St. Francis de Sales carried a copy of this book in his pocket for 18 years!

Its wisdom formed his soul; it inspired him to a life of the deepest devotion, and ultimately it helped him become one of the Church's greatest
saints. Now this book can do the same thing for you.

It's no longer fashionable to speak of the Christian life as a battle, but there's actually no better way to describe the tug-of-war
for your soul that's raging right now between the forces of light and darkness.

This book has been loved by saints and sinners alike ever since it was written four hundred years ago. Why? Because it offers sensible advice
to help you overcome spiritual obstacles and achieve spiritual perfection.

Best of all, Spiritual Combat doesn't just tell you what you ought to be doing in order to live a truly Christian life, it also shows you
how to do it.

These directions include:

  • Seven reflections to help you be sorry for sinning
  • Twelve ways to think about death, they'll help you live better today!
  • Prayer: seven ways to achieve its full benefits
  • What to do when prayer is dry and burdensome . . . or simply impossible

It's a Handbook on how to get to Heaven!!

My all time favorite spiritual reading/instruction book! It doesn't just tell you what to do- it tells you how, in practical, doable ways. It is deep, inspirational and practical at the same time. It hits home to the heart of human nature and helps you every step of the way to perfect that nature and bring it closer to God.
I highly, highly recommend!!!

Sane minds feel almost ashamed to review golden books like this.

Suffice it to say that St. Francis de Sales showed the way by carrying this with him.
