Summary:"The True Christian Life provides an introduction to the spiritual theology of a mid-20th century Thomistic master. The volume was originally published posthumously through the collaboration between Jacques Maritain and Fr. Ambroise Gardeil's nephew, Fr. Henri-Dominique Gardeil, OP. Fr.

Soon after his death, his nephew gathered several essays from the Revue thomiste and Revue des Jeunes, along with a complete-but-unpublished study on prayer. Fr. Henri-Dominique thus assembled this volume of moral / spiritual theology that sets out the principles of many important themes: divinization through grace, Christian prudence /conscience, the virtue of religion, devotion, and prayer"--
