Imitation of Christ — Portable Edition
Regarded as one of the books that best expresses the Christian ideal, The Imitation of Christ has become a classic over the centuries — by 1650, it had been printed 750 times — and remains one of the most widely read and translated religious works after the Bible. Its admirers have included figures as diverse as Saint Ignatius of Loyola, Thomas More, and Pope John Paul I.
Organised into four parts — practical advice for spiritual life; advice on the interior life; on interior consolation; on the sacrament at the altar —, this guide calls for the renunciation of worldly vanities in pursuit of eternal truths. The work grew out of the meditative experience of Thomas à Kempis, a German monk who published it in the 15th century, drawing inspiration from medieval mystical writings and the Bible.
A timeless classic that continues to enlighten generations, and will enlighten you too.
“God is our home, but many of us have wandered away from our motherland. This spiritual classic is an excellent guide – may we all follow its instructions to return home.”
Archbishop Desmond Tutu
