Madame Jeanne Guyon

Experiencing Union with God Through Inner Prayer & the Way and Results of Union with God

By: Jeanne Marie Bouvier de La Motte Guyon,Madame Jeanne Guyon

This volume contains two timeless classics on inner prayer and experiencing God from the woman who "loved Christ too much": Experiencing Union with God through Inner Prayer and The Way and Results of that Union. In a time when her church focused on external works, Madame Jeanne Guyon looked into the heart of the matter and found that it's the prayers of the soul that God desires. For daring to teach this to the mass of people "who knew not God in their hearts," she was once imprisoned by her own church leaders for seven years--four of those years in the notorious Bastille in Paris, France.

Madame Guyon

An Autobiography

By: Jeanne Marie Bouvier de La Motte Guyon,Madame Guyon

In addition to achieving a profound intimacy with God, her life fulfilled an apostolic vocation that provoked a showdown between the French King (Louis XIV) and the Papacy, between Catholic orthodoxy and its own mystical traditions, between the Church and the protestant mystical movements that were born in that era. She did all this quite accidentally, in profound subjection to her sense of the will of God in her. By her accidental bumbling ... she exposed the banality and hypocrisy of religion in her time and the hollowness of the French Court, while at the same time demonstrating what it might mean to live one's life in total accord with God, in a state of what she called "l'amour pur"--A love of God untainted by any hope or expectation of what we may want God to do for us. The historical scope and significance of Madame Guyon's life is not apparent in her Autobiography. The reader will need to wade into the formidable and acerbic body of scholarly commentary to go further. But the publishers ... correctly sense that the freshness and sincerity of Madame Guyon's story and worldview, told in her own words, needs little in the way of historical context. This book will challenge you to surrender to the divine inside of you ..."--Amazon.com.

Letters of Jeanne Guyon

By: Madame Jeanne Guyon

“This is no time to be disheartened. When the sinful lusts rebel, leave them to their disorderly cravings. Let them cry, as a child from whom we take away a dangerous yet pleasing toy. Strengthen yourself for crosses and humiliations. You will soon be made alive in Jesus Christ.”—Jeanne Guyon “Madame” Jeanne Guyon found the way to God through prayer in the midst of a darkened civilization. Her books describing her methods of prayer were so radical in their day that Guyon was imprisoned for several years in the infamous Bastille. Today, her writings are considered classics of Christian literature. This collection of Guyon’s thoughts and experiences was gleaned from the many letters she wrote during her lifetime, including her correspondence with her friend, advocate, and fellow theologian, François Fénelon.

"Method of Prayer" and "On the Way to God," by Fénelon’s close friend, Madame Guyon, demonstrate the critical importance of constant prayer. "Spiritual Maxims," by Père Lacombe, the spiritual mentor of Madame Guyon, emphasizes the importance of expressing a passionate love for God. Each stirring work is divided into short chapters, making Spiritual Progress ideal for morning or evening devotions or for Bible study. This treasured collection of classic Christian wisdom is certain to lead readers closer to the heart of God.

Song of the Bride

By: Madame Jeanne Guyon

The greatest love story ever written, the Song of Solomon describes the emotional, unfolding story of the Bridegroom and His bride. Jeanne Guyon shows how the song of a young maiden, fervently in love with her suitor, becomes a powerful allegory of every believer’s relationship with Christ depicted in the Song of Songs. Without any embarrassment for King Solomon’s intimate portrayal of the lovers, she explores: The greatness of God’s love Finding God’s favor in your life Learning to rest in His presence How trials can become blessings True surrender to God’s will in your life Allow your heart to draw near to the heart of God on this journey to the Father’s love.

A Short and Easy Method of Prayer

By: Madame Jeanne Guyon

This little treatise, conceived in great simplicity, was not originally intended for publication: it was written for a few individuals who wanted to love God with their whole heart; some of whom, because of the profit they received in reading the manuscript, wished to obtain copies of it; and, on this account alone, it was committed to the press. It still remains in its original simplicity, without any censure on the various leadings of others. Jeanne Guyon was a masterful teacher of simple truths in prayer and a celebrated French mystic of the seventeenth century. Piously trained by her parents she was profoundly impressed by the works of St. Francis de Sales. A Short and Easy Method of Prayer is NOT Experiencing the Depths of Jesus Christ, Volume 2 that has been adapted for modern publications. This reprint is from the oldest copy RDMc Publishing could locate. It has been reproduced without any textual watermarks or intentional word changes

Dialogues and Addresses

By: Madame de Maintenon

Born Françoise d'Aubigné, a criminal's daughter reduced to street begging as a child, Madame de Maintenon (1653-1719) made an improbable rise from impoverished beginnings to the summit of power as the second, secret wife of Louis XIV. An educational reformer, Maintenon founded and directed the celebrated academy for aristocratic women at Saint-Cyr. This volume presents the dialogues and addresses in which Maintenon explains her controversial philosophy of education for women. Denounced by her contemporaries as a political schemer and religious fanatic, Maintenon has long been criticized as an opponent of gender equality. The writings in this volume faithfully reflect Maintenon's respect for social hierarchy and her stoic call for women to accept the duties of their state in life. But the writings also echo Maintenon's more feminist concerns: the need to redefine the virtues in the light of women's experience, the importance of naming the constraints on women's freedom, and the urgent need to remedy the scandalous neglect of the education of women. In her writings as well as in her own model school at Saint-Cyr, Maintenon embodies the demand for educational reform as the key to the empowerment of women at the dawn of modernity.

Spiritual Torrents

By: Jeanne Marie Bouvieres D La Motte Guyon,Madame Guyon

Jeanne-Marie Bouvier de la Motte-Guyon (commonly known as Madame Guyon) was a French mystic and one of the key advocates of Quietism. Quietism was considered heretical by the Roman Catholic Church, and she was imprisoned from 1695 to 1703 after publishing a book on the topic, A Short and Easy Method of Prayer. Guyon believed that one should pray all the time, and that in whatever one does, one should be spending time with God.

A Short Method of Prayer

I did not write this little work with the thought of its being given to the public. It was prepared for the help of a few Christians who were desirous of loving God with the whole heart. But so many have requested copies of it, because of the benefit they have derived from its perusal, that I have been asked to publish it.

Selected Letters

By: Madame Sevigne

One of the world's greatest correspondents, Madame de Sévigné (1626-96) paints an extraordinarily vivid picture of France at the time of Louis XIV, in eloquent letters written throughout her life to family and friends. A significant figure in French society and literary circles, whose close friends included Madame de La Fayette and La Rochefoucauld, she reflected on both significant historical events and personal issues, and in this selection of the most significant letters, spanning almost fifty years, she is by turns humorous and melancholic, profound and superficial. Whether describing the new plays of Racine and Molière, speculating on court scandals - including the intrigues of the King's mistresses - or relating her own family concerns, Madame de Sévigné provides throughout an intriguing portrait of the lost age of Le Roi Soleil.

Memoirs of Madame la Marquise de Montespan (Complete)

By: Memoirs of Madame la Marquise de Montespan (Complete)

The reign of the King who now so happily and so gloriously rules over France will one day exercise the talent of the most skilful historians. But these men of genius, deprived of the advantage of seeing the great monarch whose portrait they fain would draw, will search everywhere among the souvenirs of contemporaries and base their judgments upon our testimony. It is this great consideration which has made me determined to devote some of my hours of leisure to narrating, in these accurate and truthful Memoirs, the events of which I myself am witness. Naturally enough, the position which I fill at the great theatre of the Court has made me the object of much false admiration, and much real satire. Many men who owed to me their elevation or their success have defamed me; many women have belittled my position after vain efforts to secure the King's regard. In what I now write, scant notice will be taken of all such ingratitude. Before my establishment at Court I had met with hypocrisy of this sort in the world; and a man must, indeed, be reckless of expense who daily entertains at his board a score of insolent detractors. I have too much wit to be blind to the fact that I am not precisely in my proper place. But, all things considered, I flatter myself that posterity will let certain weighty circumstances tell in my favour. An accomplished monarch, to greet whom the Queen of Sheba would have come from the uttermost ends of the earth, has deemed me worthy of his entertainment, and has found amusement in my society. He has told me of the esteem which the French have for Gabrielle d'Estrees, and, like that of Gabrielle, my heart has let itself be captured, not by a great king, but by the most honest man of his realm. To France, Gabrielle gave the Vendome, to-day our support. The princes, my sons, give promise of virtues as excellent, and will be worthy to aspire to destinies as noble. It is my desire and my duty to give no thought to my private griefs begotten of an ill-assorted marriage. May the King ever be adored by his people; may my children ever be beloved and cherished by the King; I am happy, and I desire to be so.
