Salvation and spiritual perfection should not be sought haphazardly; a strategy is needed to win the battle for our souls.
The Spiritual Combat, first published in 1589, provides timeless guidance in spiritual discipline. St. Francis de Sales (1576–1622) read from it himself every day and recommended it to everyone under his direction.
Vigorous, realistic, and full of keen insight into human nature, The Spiritual Combat consists of short chapters based on the maxim that in the spiritual life one must either "fight or die." Fr. Lorenzo Scupoli shows the Christian how to combat his passions and vices, especially impurity and sloth, in order to arrive at victory.
This is the original TAN edition, now with updated typesetting, fresh new cover, new size and quality binding, and the same trusted content.

Excellent
St. Francis de Sales read from it every day and recommended it to everyone under his direction. I was at Chapter 12 or so, and I decided to begin again and take notes. If it was good enough for St. Francis de Sales, it will help just about everyone.
