"Among spiritual giants towers the figure of St. John Eudes." - Ven. Fulton J. Sheen In December 2016, Pope Francis accelerated a process to proclaim St. John Eudes a Doctor of the Church. In a few years he may be christened "Doctor Cordis" (the Doctor of the Heart), using the title given him by Pope St. Pius X: "the Father, Doctor, and Apostle of Devotion to the Hearts of Jesus & Mary." This series is an introduction to his spirituality, widely available in English for virtually the first time. In a few dense, passionate pages, St. John Eudes gives voice to the fullest, deepest, most vibrant expression of his mysticism. It expresses passionate love in a myriad of ways; both the love of God for humanity, and of this saint for the lover of his soul. Meditations include passages such as: - "Ignite in my soul, oh Jesus, a thirst so ardent for your holy love that I would consider it martyrdom just to love you insufficiently in return..." (p.4) - "You love, desire, and pursue me with such intensity, my Lord and my God... you fear to lose me as if I were a precious treasure..." (p.15) - "Everything in creation, all things visible and invisible, are so many voices by which You constantly cry out to me: 'I love you! I love you! Love me, for I have loved you first...'" (p.15) Check out our other prayerbooks on Amazon, as well as a short biography titled A Heart on Fire: St. John Eudes, Model of the New Evangelization.
Autorenporträt
"John Eudes: an outstanding man. The sanctity of his life gave a shining example of holiness, not only in his lasting service to humanity but in his illustrious zeal for the salvation of souls." - Pope St. Pius X Born during France's "Golden Age of Saints" in the 17th century, he took part in a wave of new evangelization in France alongside Sts. Francis de Sales, Vincent de Paul, Margaret Mary Alacoque, and many others. He founded lasting institutions like The Congregation of Jesus and Mary (the Eudists) to train priests in seminaries and continue his work of evangelization; the Sisters of Our Lady of Charity of the Good Shepherd (the Good Shepherd Sisters) to care for repentant prostitutes and other victims of human trafficking); and he left his mark on many other orders like the Little Sisters of the Poor, and Mother Antonia Brenner's Eudist Servants of the 11th Hour.
