This volume presents two of his shorter works which have not hitherto been available in English-The Hospital of the Poor (Hospitale Pauperum) and The Way of the Monk: A Handbook for Spiritual Warfare (Enchiridion Monachorum) Both of these treatises were written to serve as simple and helpful guides to the conduct of the spiritual life, and, because of this, are composed in a direct, straightforward and easily readable style. In this respect,...

A collection of sayings of the desert monks on fighting vice and increasing in virtue. The exercises they did, on a daily basis, show us that there is never a day of rest in gaining holiness, virtue, or staying on the narrow path.

In the following pages, we read about an ambitious Luther trying to obtain for himself the dignity of the cardinalate at a young age. We learn about the true motives for his objections to indulgences, which sprang principally from resentment at the loss of income for his own Augustinian Order. We witness also his bad temper and vitriolic tongue, his nocturnal conversations with demons (whether they were real or imagined), and his scandalous an...

No es un mero padre ideal el que se describe en El padre cristiano, aspirando a una santidad inalcanzable o fantasiosa. Es un padre tal como Dios quiso que fueran todos los padres, tal como debería y podría encontrarse a la cabeza de toda familia cristiana. Es un padre cristiano genuino que cumple fielmente las obligaciones de su estado y se santifica en los deberes ordinarios de la vida diaria. El padre cristiano naturalmente inculcará háb...

It is no mere ideal father that is described in The Christian Father, aspiring after unattainable or fanciful saintliness. It is a father such as God intended all fathers to be, such as should and might be found at the head of every Christian family. It is a genuine Christian father faithfully discharging the obligations of his state and sanctifying himself in the ordinary every-day duties of life. The Christian father will naturally instil...

This volume goes from the 1st Sunday of Advent through the last week of time af...

La llamamos "la serie del hacedor de santos" porque todos los que la han leído han desarrollado un amor y una devoción a Nuestro Señor mayores que antes. La mediación de la mañana debe hacerse en algún momento de la mañana. La de la tarde por la noche y la sección de lectura espiritual a mediodía o cuando sea posible. Cuando se dividen, son muy breves, pero hay que procurar no precipitarse. El volumen de Cuaresma abarca todos los días desde la...

We are calling this 'the saint maker series' because everyone that has read it has developed a greater love and devotion to Our Lord than they had before. The morning mediation is to be done sometime in the morning. The evening in the evening and the spiritual reading section either midday or whenever possible. When broken up these are very short in time but try not to rush it. The Lent volume covers everyday from Septuagesima to Holy Saturday...

Indeed, so great is the evil of sin, that if, through the blessing of God, this little treatise should be the means of preventing but one venial sin in any one of its readers, it will have accomplished a most glorious task, for it will have prevented an evil far greater (could one but realize it) than the Black Death, the bubonic plague, the earthquake in Tokyo, or even the universal Deluge itself. And we devoutly hope it may prevent not one o...
