One of the most profoundly influential and deeply inspirational saints in the last five centuries of the Church, St. Francis de Sales is famous for his personality and writings, which have earned him the appellation “The Gentleman Saint” and the designation Doctor of the Church.

 

De Sales’s tempered and gentle yet firm and determined approach to spiritual direction made him a true pearl of great price in the Church’s spiritual patrimony. No one ever mastered the doctoring of souls quite like this gentle Doctor of the Church. His erudition combined with his sweetness mark him as a highly unusual man in the story of the Church, particularly during his time.

Excellent as spiritual reading for Advent and the Christmas season, these lovely and profound sermons of St. Francis de Sales make for remarkable fruit for meditation throughout the year.
