The Imitation of Christ

The most widely read and influential spiritual book after the Bible, with a fresh and accessible translation by Sister Mary Nazarene Prestofilippo, FSP, and enhanced with reflections and questions for meditation and prayer!

This Pauline Books & Media edition of a spiritual classic breathes new life into this timeless devotional text with a translation that is faithful to the original Latin, yet contemporizes the grammar and phrasing to make this work more accessible for readers today.

Each chapter of the unabridged text is followed by a short reflection by the Daughters of St. Paul to help you understand and live its timeless wisdom and a prayer to help you ask for God's grace. A helpful appendix offers reading suggestions organized by reader type and subject matter.
