Publisher Comments:

There are as many paths to holiness as there are saints in Heaven...but Christians can't follow them all. Yet there's one thing every saint practices that anyone can imitate: the simple art of loving God, which the beloved St. Francis de Sales explains here. Under his wise guidance, readers will discover the secrets to growing holy through the simple things in life — work, play, and rest. They'll learn to avoid the distractions (even the religious ones) that weary the soul...and they'll soon be able to focus all their energy simply on loving God.

The teachings of St. Francis De Sales were recorded by nuns for this book, to who he spoke in hopes of aiding them in their Christian life. If you need a dose of humility, here is a good book to read. And should you think you are humble enough, don't hesitate to order it now!
