Description
This book explores the life, thought, and enduring significance of St. Francis de Sales, examining how his encounter with Geneva-both the actual city and what it represented-shaped his distinctive spiritual vision. It traces his development from aristocratic youth to missionary priest to bishop and spiritual teacher. It analyzes his major works and his methods of spiritual direction. It explores his relationships, especially with Jane de Chantal, and the institutions they created together. It examines his influence on later Catholic spirituality and considers his relevance for contemporary challenges.
