Overview

The Catholic Spirituality Collection (12 vols.) combines the greatest works in Christian mystical theology providing you with a guided tour through the inner sanctum of the soul. The great Christian ascetics are often referred to as the “scientists of prayer” because of their innate ability to articulate the contemplative life. Each of these authors has left an unfading mark on the tradition of Christian worship—many were even formative in the spiritual lives of the great Protestant Reformers.

Explore the nature of holy living and the rigors of the ascetic life with St. Benedict, St. Francis de Sales, and St. Bernard. Relate to the painful process of spiritual growth expressed by the Carmelite mystics—St. John of the Cross, Teresa of Ávila, and St. Thérèse of Lisieux. Learn to walk closely with Jesus Christ from the writings of St. Francis, St. Ignatius, and Thomas à Kempis.

The Catholic Spirituality Collection (12 Vols.) truly is the collection for everyone. The Catholic mystical theologians speak to every walk of life, whether you are a student of the monastic traditions, a spiritual mentor or just want to better understand the spiritual disciplines. The Logos edition of these titles combines their depth of spiritual insight with your entire Logos library. Search your other resources for more about the spiritualists, or quickly locate passages from their writings cited in other books from your library. Even Scripture passages appear by simply dragging your mouse over the reference.
