Best book ever!

I had read that this book converted over a million people in its day. I found it a little tedious in the beginning, but further into the book, it hit home with me as no other book ever has. It is difficult to describe how clearly this book made me see my faults, and how it drove me to amend my life. The specific practical advice was as timely today as it was in the 1500's. I cannot recommend this book highly enough, for anyone who is not afraid to take a good look at himself.

Need spiritual help?

The Sinner's Guide is jam-packed with practical spiritual advice for those struggling along the pilgrim path to God. Overcome by anger? Worn out by stress? Worried about apathy in prayer? The Sinner's Guide can help. A favorite spiritual manual of Saint Teresa of Avila and Saint Francis de Sales, it provides compelling soulful direction even now. If you're a sinner, you can benefit from this book!

FANTASTIC

This book is FANTASTIC old-school teaching. I recommend this book to everyone I know. I've bought 5 copies of the book and pass it out to everyone. It is a little deep, but once you get into the meat of the book, it speaks to you and shakes you up. It's real old-school teaching, could be offensive to some, but only because it speaks the truth. This is the book that should be read in Christian and Catholic schools alike. It's teachings are timeless. It may have been written in the 1500's, but I have not been able to find any thing that can dispute these teachings. Still relevant, if not more so in today's evil world.

Wake up world, read this book
Read this book and heed it's teachings or rue the day you didn't!

Food for spiritual thought

The first part of the book speaks to unrepentant sinners. Fr. Louis puts forth compelling arguments on why you should fear hell, why you should repent, and why you should repent NOW. The second part of the book offers advice to the repentant sinner--how to avoid the ever-present temptation to commit mortal and venial sins. One theme I enjoyed throughout the book was his depiction of God's dual nature: His outstretched arm and firm hand; His justice and His mercy. The repentant sinner will receive mercy, but for the unrepentant... Fr. Louis uses extensive Biblical citations and quotes from the Church Doctors to support his arguments. These references are always on point and frequently beautiful and moving. So, besides providing instruction on how to better your character, the book will deepen your understanding of the Bible and the roots of Catholic theology. Fr. Louis quotes St. Augustine extensively. For me, his "Confessions" had a much greater impact, maybe because it was so personal and so human a story. "The Sinner's Guide" is not a personal conversion story; it is more of an instruction manual. Good reading nonetheless!
