"A mystical classic now easier to understand" Very few spiritual classics from centuries past offer real guidance for entering into the darkness and light of Christian mysticism. Notoriously difficult to understand, this contemporary English translation of one of the most popular texts from the late Middle Ages is different: It offers an accessible invitation to the reader to enter into an engagement with God, through this "cloud of unknowing." Mystical concepts are explained in everyday language. Written by an anonymous fourteenth-century author, "The Cloud of Unknowing" was originally prepared for cloistered monks. Yet it has found centuries of readers from all walks of life. Each brief chapter offers the spiritual seeker a way to enter into the life of prayer and appeals to the reader's common sense in beginning steps on the path to knowing a God beyond all knowing. A foreword by bestselling author, Robert Benson, special to this edition, helps to put this classic text within reach of everyday Christians.

Heavenly Love comes as a wound that is a gift of God. Francis de Sales's spiritual masterpiece, "Treatise on the Love of God," was originally published in 1616 while he was Bishop of Geneva. This contemporary English edition preserves St. Francis's gentle prose, his enthusiasm for God, compassion, and good humor. For all spiritual pilgrims seeking comfort and guidance, this book offers the assurance that "a deep and satisfying prayer life is not only possible, but within the reach of anyone who will accept what God is forever offering."
There is no greater authority on the saints than Alban Butler, and
his enormous research has been the standard reference on the
subject for the last two and a half centuries. This new adaptation
of Butler's multi-volume "Lives of the Saints" presents a
modernized text for today's reader and provides an illuminating
guide to these historic, symbolic, and foundational Christian men
and women.
