Synopsis

2010 Reprint of 1948 Edition. The Life of God in the Soul of Man was written as a letter of spiritual counsel to a friend, and it succeeded far beyond the author's expectations. It passed from hand to hand until it was brought to Gilbert Burnet, the future bishop of Salisbury, with the suggestion that it be made available to the world. It is considered a classic book of Christian devotion. It is timeless in its appeal. Its thought is clear and comprehensible; its language possesses a quiet beauty and poignancy that does not lose its charm with the passing of the years; and its style is not distorted by the artificialities of temporal literary fashions.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Written by Henry Scougal during his time at the University of Aberdeen, The Life of God in the Soul of Man was originally written as an explanation of Christianity and a source of spiritual guidance for one of Scougals friends. It was so appreciated by those who read it that it was later published as a book to be enjoyed by a wider readership. Nearly one hundred years later, Charles Wesley a leader of the Methodist Movement sent a copy to his friend George Whitefield, one of the most prominent figures in the Methodist Revival of Britain and the Great Awakening in America, who drew inspiration from its pages for a number of his famous sermons. In The Life of God in the Soul of Man, Scougal explains in an elegant, sincere, and accessible manner the four essential characteristics of divine life, their excellence, their advantages, and the practical steps you can take to realizing them in your own personal experience.
