Sunday's Semiserious Summary

This being Sunday, I thought it appropriate to recommend an excellent link. It is to:

The Imitation of Christ
byThomas, à Kempis
"What Good Is Knowledge Without Fear of God?"

"Who could have guessed that a book written almost 600 years ago by a monk for other monks would become one of the most popular Christian devotionals worldwide, second only to the Bible? Today, The Imitation of Christ is still as much a handbook for Christian growth as it was when it was first published in 1427. The author, a devout Augustinian monk named Thomas à Kempis, couldn't possibly have predicted its far-reaching impact. "
"Here is an excerpt from this classic work. "

"Read this article from the Christian History & Biography website. "

The first two chapters are a quick read and may be as good a sermon as you will hear all day.
