Product Details
Imitation of Christ by Thomas A Kempis has guided people to spiritual peace for over 5 centuries. Kempis, an Augustinian monk, says that people will get more out of the Gospels which are about Jesus Christ if they try to live more like Jesus Christ. When In Imitation of Christ was written, the call to closely follow Christ was usually taken to be meant for those contemplating monastic life. As time went by In Imitation of Christ appealed more and more to the laity until today it is said to be second only to the Bible in religious book sales.
In Imitation of Christ, Kempis "provides a series of reflections on such topics as humility, charity, discipline, self-examination, and meditation, revealing a simple path to a life of faith that is challenging and profound while still remaining accessible and grounded". Imitation of Christ presents a picture of progress in life that is rooted in God and the individual rather than in society and the powerful draw of consumerism. The reader is encouraged to live a life closer to God by imitating the way Christ was close to God as is seen in the Gospels. This edition of In Imitation of Christ has a new foreword by Carl Anderson, Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus.
