Meeting the Master in the Garden: How Jesus Cultivates Our Soul

Now with the complete trilogy of The Imitation of Christ, Consolations for My Soul, and Meeting the Master in the Garden, The Crossroad Publishing Company offers William Griffin’s compilation of the highest wisdom of the Middle Ages in easy to read and engaging language. With added material by the translator to explain a Kempis’s vision of the religious life and his remarkable style, these short gems are designed to be read for inspiration and devotion, used for personal retreats, and shared in groups.

“Refracted through William Griffin’s rollicking translation and commentary, these “lost” works of Thomas à Kempis come to new life. Who says spiritual wisdom has to be dull?”—ROBERT ELLSBERG, author of All Saints: Daily Reflections and Saints’ Guide to Happiness
