By

Publisher: Harper

In this volume we find brought together interpretations of five classics of devotional literature: The Imitation of Christ, The Introduction to the Devout Life by Francis de Salis, the Journal of John Woolman, Purity of Heart by Soren Kier and Selected Letters by Friedrich von The author testifies that these books have doors of life to him, and in this labor of love he hopes to open those doors that may enter into the life of prayer and devotion which characterises each of these and their authors. Professor Steers has become one of our leading exp of and one of Protestantism's most helpful guides towards a more meaningful prayer life. This book will be welcomed by the ever widening circle of those who are convinced deep Christian experience must ""begin from within.
