Publisher Description

One of the most remarkable books of devotion ever written, this examination of the Christian life continues to resonate with readers 300 years after its initial publication. Praised by readers as varied as Samuel Johnson, Edward Gibbon, and John Wesley, the book offers reflections on prayer, personal holiness, and charity.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

William Law, the 18th-century Anglican priest who heavily influenced the theology of John and Charles Wesley, lambastes pious hypocrisy and the corruption of the church in A Serious Call to a Devout and Holy Life, the latest reissue in Vintage' s Spiritual Classics series. Law' s prose is fresh and vivid as he illustrates the holy Christian life as one lived wholly for God. His thoughts on prayer, personal holiness and service to the poor will resonate with many contemporary readers.
