Synopsis
Next to the Bible, THE IMITATION OF CHRIST is the most widely read devotional work within the Christian community. Thought to be compiled by fifteenth-century cleric Thomas à Kempis (c. 1380 1471), this spiritual classic focuses the contemporary God-seeker on a religion of the heart - a vital connection with God in our innermost being. It advocates the cultivation of virtues, like humility and purity of intention, by inviting the spirit of Jesus to dwell richly in our lives. It emphasises the need to translate that life of love into daily action.
Now you can experience the timeless wisdom of this spiritual classic with no previous knowledge of late mediaeval Christianity. This SkyLight Illuminations edition, based on John Wesley's popular 1741 abridgment, renders these meditations on the life and teachings of Jesus in a way that is accessible to the contemporary reader. A substantive introduction and facing-page commentary places the work in its original context; clarifies the text's roots in the Bible, the early Church and mediaeval mysticism and explains its influence - spanning five hundred years - on spiritual luminaries from saints to popes and its continuing significance today.
