The Imitation of Christ by Thomas A. Kempis is one of the most treasured devotional books of all time. Originally published anonymously in the early 15th century, The Imitation of Christ is probably the most widely read and influential spiritual book after the Bible. Emerging from the 14th century religious movement Modern Devotion (Devotio Moderna) of which author Thomas � Kempis was a member, this spiritual classic is a meditation on the spiritual life. While first intended as an ascetic work for young monks in training, its keen sense of human nature addresses the spiritual journey of every Christian. For over 600 years, this timeless work has reached the hearts of both saints and sinners. Probing questions about the meaning of life and showing us how to live out the teachings of Jesus, The Imitation of Christ has inspired both religious devotion and conversion. Thomas � Kempis shows you how to lead a disciplined life characterized by simplicity, humility, and charity. Encouraging the renunciation of worldly vanities and vices, he invites you to answer your call to the Christian life. His practical and wisdom-filled insights guide you in your spiritual growth and aspiration to eternal life.

Good reading
I would recommend this book to all Catholics, as it tells of the way we should be living while awaiting the second coming of Christ. I read a little from it each night as I go to bed.

No Words For This Book!!
This book is one of a kind, second ONLY to the bible. It's very profound and reaches your innermost being. I had to be at the right time in my life to appreciate and totally enjoy this book. In short, anyone who doesn't come in contact with this book has lost a great deal. Also, on this book site, it's cheap and plentiful!!

awesome insight
In the mid 1400's when this book was written, everyone in Christendom was Roman Catholic. Consider that this book was instrumental in John Newton's and John Wesley's conversions. We can sift out the legalistic toned doctrine since we are informed. Overall Kempis has awesome insight to the man Jesus and our walk as a pilgrim and follower of Jesus.
