Description

Complete and unabridged 15th century text by Thomas à Kempis and translated by William Benham in 1886.  This book is a classic for comfort and working out of living the non secular life of Christ in a physical world.

The Thomas à Kempis fan club includes St. Ignatius, Thomas Merton, Thomas More, or even Agatha Christie’s Miss Marple. (She reads a chapter of The Imitation of Christ each and every night before sleep.) Imitation has exerted immense influence on Christian worship, ethics, and church structure, because it gives specific yet broad-minded guidance concerning the central task of Christian life–learning to live like Jesus. Better to read this book a little bit here and there, from time to time, than to take a look at gobbling it cover to hide. Imitation is no triumph of orderly thinking, but it is a great monument and incentive to deep living. –Michael Joseph Gross
