Uniformity with God's Will

By St. Alphonsus Liguori · Published by TAN Books

Overview

Every Catholic wants to achieve the happiness of eternal life with God. But how can we practically live out the will of God in our daily lives? How can we be perfect? How can we become saints? The way to perfection is simple,unite your will with God’s and put into action the prayer “Thy will be done.”

This edition emphasizes fidelity to Catholic tradition, a disciplined approach to prayer, and growth in the theological and moral virtues. It provides practical guidance suitable for a home, parish group, or classroom, encouraging slow reading, reflection, and concrete resolutions. The aim is steady conversion, not quick impressions, so the structure helps readers remain focused on Scripture, the sacramental life, and the wisdom of trusted Catholic teachers.

  • Structured for steady spiritual growth in daily life.
  • Traditional teaching presented with clarity and focus.
  • Suited to personal prayer and parish study.
  • Encourages disciplined, practical application.
  • Built to serve for years of regular use.

Intended Audience

  • Married Catholic adults (especially parents) who are serious about forming their interior life and aligning their domestic-church vocation with God’s will.
  • Readers familiar with traditional Catholic spiritual writers and who desire a deeper, not superficial, transformation — someone who recognises that discipleship means conforming one’s will to the Divine.
  • Parish-group facilitators, OCIA leaders, and formation directors who search for rich material for spiritual retreats, small-group sharing or ongoing adult catechesis.
  • Practically-minded Catholics who appreciate structured reflection but want it firmly rooted in the theological and moral virtue tradition — not just feel-good platitudes.

FAQs

What exactly does “uniformity with God’s will” mean?
It refers to more than simply doing God’s will: it means that our personal will becomes one with His — making only what God wills our will too. The book presents this as the summit of spiritual perfection.

Who wrote this book and what is its spiritual pedigree?
It is authored by St. Alphonsus Liguori (1696-1787), a Doctor of the Church known for his deep pastoral and spiritual works, especially on moral theology and the interior life.

Is this book only for priests and religious, or can lay people benefit?
While its theology is profound, the book is eminently suited for lay Catholics who seek serious spiritual growth. St. Alphonsus emphasizes that every soul’s perfection consists in the conformity of one’s will with God’s will.

How should I use this book in my daily life or in a family/formation setting?
The text invites slow reading, reflection and application. It’s suitable for personal spiritual reading, family discussion, formation groups or parish retreats. Use it to set your will, review daily actions, and align routine with God’s greater purpose.

Will I find practical exercises or tools within?
While the primary focus is spiritual and theological, the text contains vivid imagery (e.g., the example of the two servants) and concrete invitations to examine whether one’s actions follow God’s will or simply one’s own.

What’s the main benefit I’ll receive from reading this book?
You’ll gain a deeper awareness that the greatest offering one can give God is one’s own will — and you’ll be equipped to reorder your interior life (and thus your exterior actions) toward that end, making your everyday life a path of union with God.

Key Themes

  • The supreme importance of uniting one’s will to God’s will.
  • True perfection arises not from great deeds but from willing what God wills.
  • The contrast between active obedience to God’s will and idle works done for self-will.
  • How the saints achieved sanctity: by complete conformity and even uniformity of their will with the Divine.
  • The domestic application: families, daily routines, sacrifices, and prayer ordered according to God’s will.
  • The theological vision of the soul as offering its will entirely to God — the greatest gift we can give.

    Best book EVER!

    EVERY single Christian SHOULD read this book! It is the best book for learning how to do God's will and why to do it. I am so grateful to Tan Books for selling this book. I have been seeking God's will and emptying myself for His will. I was having a very hard time until I read this book. I gave my book to my brother, so now I'm buying another! READ IT!!
