The Imitation of Christ
Thomas a Kempis · 236 pages
With the exception of the Bible, no Christian writing has had so wide a vogue or so sustained a popularity as this. And yet, in one sense, it is hardly an original work at all.

But these elements are interwoven with such delicate skill an

The Pursuit of Holiness
Jerry Bridges, Foster W. Cline, Jim Fay · 161 pages
Holiness : the Christian's joint venture with God. God's command is, "Be holy, for I am holy." But as victims of sin's "guerilla warfare," Christians are often prone to give up the fight, or at least to compromise with sin in its more difficult forms. Why do we so rarely experience holy living? The central issue confronting us, says Jerry Bridges in The Pursuit of Holiness, is that Christians fail
The Sacred and the Profane: The Nature of Religion
Mircea Eliade · 256 pages
Famed historian of religion Mircea Eliade observes that even moderns who proclaim themselves residents of a completely profane world are still unconsciously nourished by the memory of the sacred. Eliade traces manifestations of the sacred from primitive to modern times in terms of space, time, nature, and the cosmos. In doing so he shows how the total human experience of the religious man compares

Orthodoxy
G.K. Chesterton · 156 pages
Orthodoxy is G. K. Chesterton’s response to his critics’ assertion that his earlier collection of essays, Heretics, had “merely criticised current philosophies without offering any alternative philosophy.” In his intellectual journey from pagan to agnostic to positivist philosopher, he had attempted to build a philosophy “some ten minutes in advance of the truth.” But when he compared his modern p
