Introduction to a Devout Life - St Francis De Sales

Most people spend their life walking in the wrong direction.

No matter how much you progress in life, if you’re going the wrong way - you won’t have much to show for it in the end. Even in the spiritual life, most people are just wandering around and hoping that they will stumble upon sainthood.

The problem with this sort of mentality is that - it rarely works.

It’s harder to guess your way to holiness than actually knowing how to overcome sin and grow in virtue.

That’s why having guidance is the most time-efficient and effective way to achieve. And St Francis de Sales, following his own advice, didn’t just reach holiness but became one of the most influential saints, earning him the title ‘Doctor of the Church’.

Through his gentle yet powerful writing, St. Francis takes you on a journey through your sinful state, and raises you up closer to God so that you too can join him in Heaven. 

This spiritual classic covers:

-How can I overcome sin and grow in virtue?

-How should we talk to God and receive the sacraments?

-What does it take to become saints that always love God?

-Deep meditations that force you to reflect on our own lives

Every Christian is called to live a devout life. Few know how. Fewer do.

Take the guesswork out and have one of the great saints as your mentor. Because I can assure you, when you’re learning how to grow in joy or how to always have a sense of peace - you’ll never look back.

Let one of the Church’s greatest saints mentor you. Discover how to grow in joy and peace — and never look back
