If you are looking to grow in virtue at all, get over any vice, or just become a better Catholic, this book is essential and will not steer you wrong. A little bit of knowledge about Catholic theology will go a long way in really pulling all the material presented together, yet again it is not so much that the average man will be alienated by the topics presented, and if you want to refresh those basics on Catholic theology before reading you can easily brush up on these topics by watching Fr. Ripperger;s videos on YouTube before reading (or of course opening a copy of any of St. Thomas Aquinas; works, especially the Summa Theologica). However, the above point should not deter any person from reading this book, that point is only made for the person who wants to absolutely get the most they can out of this book, it is still very easily understandable and priceless wisdom for any person.","date":"Jul 31st 2022"}]},"bulk_discount_rates":[],"meta_keywords":"Virtue and Vice,Fight Against Sin,Human Soul","show_quantity_input":1,"title":"The Spiritual Combat and a Treatise on Peace of Soul","gift_wrapping_available":false,"min_purchase_quantity":0,"customizations":[],"images":[{"data":"https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-iuax7bpgx3/images/stencil/{:size}/products/1394/1923/1923__78189.1675951601.jpg?c=1","alt":"The Spiritual Combat and a Treatise on Peace of Soul"},{"data":"https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-iuax7bpgx3/images/stencil/{:size}/products/1394/10616/TC1115_Cover1__15117.1707770765.jpg?c=1","alt":"The Spiritual Combat and a Treatise on Peace of Soul"},{"data":"https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-iuax7bpgx3/images/stencil/{:size}/products/1394/10617/TC1115_Cover2__47615.1707770765.jpg?c=1","alt":"The Spiritual Combat and a Treatise on Peace of Soul"},{"data":"https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-iuax7bpgx3/images/stencil/{:size}/products/1394/10618/TC1115_Interior1__36245.1707770765.jpg?c=1","alt":"The Spiritual Combat and a Treatise on Peace of Soul"}],"width":"5.50"}
The Spiritual Combat and a Treatise on Peace of Soul
Salvation and spiritual perfection should not be sought haphazardly; a strategy is needed to win the battle for our souls.
The Spiritual Combat, first published in 1589, provides timeless guidance in spiritual discipline. St. Francis de Sales (1576–1622) read from it himself every day and recommended it to everyone under his direction.
Vigorous, realistic, and full of keen insight into human nature, The Spiritual Combat consists of short chapters based on the maxim that in the spiritual life one must either "fight or die." Fr. Lorenzo Scupoli shows the Christian how to combat his passions and vices, especially impurity and sloth, in order to arrive at victory.
