Excerpt from The History of the Variations of the Protestant Churches, Vol. 1 of 2 These are the solid and steady principles by which I under take to demonstrate to Protestants the falsehood of their doc trine, from their continual variations, and the unstable manner in which they have explained their dogmas. I do not speak of the unsteadiness of individuals, but of the body of the church, in the books which they call symbolical; namely, those that have been made to express the consent of the churches; in a word, from their own confessions of faith, decreed, signed and published; the doctrine of which has been given out as the doc trine containing nothing but the pure word of God, and which, notwithstanding, has been changed in so many different ways in its chief articles.

Without regular reminders of God and a steady routine of prayer and meditation, your inner life shrivels up, your prayers grow listless, sacramental grace becomes inaccessible, and even the Mass feels fruitless. Daily meditation is a proven remedy for dangerous spiritual lethargy. That's why we've compiled this four-volume set to help you manage your spiritual readings and to achieve the glorious aim of all prayer: union with God! Written by some of the Church's greatest theologians, these meditations will teach you to be ever attentive to the presence of God in you, to remember that He wants you to be a saint, and that He stands ever ready to help you attain that lofty goal. Follow these prayers and you'll soon find yourself reaping the rich spiritual harvest that regular meditation brings - a stronger will, an even greater love of God, and a divine peace and joy that no person or circumstance will take from you. Meditations for Advent will keep you prayerful amidst the worst distractions of the holiday season. Here 17th Century French Bishop Jacques-Benigne Bossuet will daily draw you closer to Jesus. On Christmas Day, you'll find yourself stepping lightly into church, ready and eager to adore the newborn King. Meditations for Lent features fifty brief but remarkably powerful meditations by Bishop Bossuet that lift you to God and help you enter into the spirit of mortification called for by the Church during the Season of Lent. Meditations Before Mass is a Catholic classic by Msgr. Romano Guardini and offers practical, straightforward advice that will help you overcome distractions and restlessness during Mass, and thus opening to you the incomparable swell of graces that Our Lord is ever impatient to give you through the Eucharist. Everyday Meditations will help you discern God's voice daily, rest in it, and respond to it according to each day's opportunities and needs. These are Bl. John Henry Newman's most moving Christian meditations, each guaranteed to enkindle in your soul the very same love they enkindled in his. As they nurtured Newman's daily acts of conversion and finally made him worthy of the title "Blessed," so will they call you to daily acts of conversion and finally lead you, as they led Newman, "to bow down in awe before the depths of God's love."

Spiritual meditation is the surest way to grow in holiness, and Our Lady is truly an example of perfection. This combination makes Meditations on Mary a spiritual powerhouse that will lift your soul to God and help you along the path to heaven. Meditations on Mary features twenty-four of the most powerful and moving meditations written by 17th Century Bishop Jacques-Benigne Bossuet considered to be one of the best homilists in the history of the Church. Author of Meditations for Lent and Meditations for Advent, Bishop Bossuet has been admired for his piety and eloquence for over three hundred years. Now his meditations on Our Lady are available to you in English for the very first time! Although we know Our Lady serves as a perfect example of how a Christian should live and bear witness to Our Lord, Scripture contains only a few glimpses of her life, leaving our knowledge limited and our imagination wanting. In these pages, Bishop Bossuet takes you on a stunning pilgrimage through the principal mysteries of Our Lady's life. He masterfully blends what he's learned from Sacred Scripture with the spiritual traditions rooted in the heart of the Church, and illuminates it with his own theological reflections. He'll bring you to a deeper understanding of Our Lady's compassion, her suffering during Christ's Passion, and the loneliness she felt after his Ascension to heaven. Bishop Bossuet will show you how Jesus brings honor to himself by honoring his mother, and how Our Lady is extraordinary solely because of her alliance with Jesus. Mary teaches us how to let God direct our steps, how to remain humble in commanding and obeying, and how to seek holiness through our daily work. She shows us how to pray with humility and perseverance, to advance in perfection, and, by doing all these things, to conform ourselves to the holy will of God. Each short meditation is worthy of your contemplation, because each contains a lesson directly from the Blessed Mother to sinners like you and me.
