5.0 out of 5 stars Death of self-love, December 13, 1999
Fenelon had an amazing mind and heart for God which he used to influence many of the leaders of his day. This book has inspired me to view the trials of life as the furnace needed to bring me to the end of my sinful self and accept my position as "alive in CHRIST". It is a must read for anyone who is serious about growing spiritually and intellectually.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thought provoking devotional, July 13, 1998
By A Customer
This is one of the very best devotionals ever written, though it actually consists of letters Fenelon wrote. The issues he addresses still affect us all today, and his gentle but unflinching advice always causes me to examine my own heart. A wonderful book.

5.0 out of 5 stars God Centered!, March 5, 2004
By Jim L. Buckholz (Visalia, CA United States) - See all my reviews
All of my Protestant brothers and sisters, relax!!! This is just about the most God centered book that I have ever read (apart from Brother Lawerence and Michael Molinos). I don't know all the ins and outs of this brothers Theology, but I do know that what he says in this book is solid. I love this book, and I am a staunch Calvinist! We Christians need a book like this just as much as we need Calvin's Institutes or Luther's Bondage Of The Will. Do you believe that we must be dead to self and completely given over to the will of God through Christ our Lord? If your answer is a resounding yes, then this book is for you. If not, move on quickly to something watered down I guess-though I would heartily exhort against it. Just being playful! God bless you in your reading and by God's grace, applying of this book.
