About the Book

Christ, the Life of the Soul is a modern spiritual classic. Drawing upon the Scriptures, the Liturgy, and the Doctors of the Church, Blessed Columba Marmion shows us the path towards freedom from self-bondage and the enlargement of our souls—to realize, with St. Paul, that “I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth in me.” As Blessed Marmion puts it, “Christ is the Alpha and Omega of all sanctity.” He shows how to die to sin and live for God, and the primary sources of our spiritual nourishment in the Eucharist and prayer, until the consummation of our adoption in Christ Jesus in the mystical body of Christ. Perhaps Pope Benedict XV said it best: “Read this—it is the pure doctrine of the Church … and singularly conducive to excite and maintain the flame of Divine love in the soul.”
