Although descended from a long line of French nobility, Francois Fenelon devoted his life to Christ and the church. In 1689, he was appointed as the tutor of the seven-year-old Duke of Burgundy, who was second in line for the French throne. When Fenelon began his tutorship, the duke was a spoiled, mean child. Years later, when Fenelon left him, he was a very governable young man who thoroughly understood the responsibility of his future duties. Later, Fenelon became the spiritual advisor of a small, committed number of men and women at the court of Louis XIV of France, including the king himself. In fact, under Fenelon's wise spiritual direction, Louis XIV sought to live a life of true spirituality in the midst of a court that was otherwise shamelessly immoral. During this period, Fenelon also became a friend and spiritual advisor to Madame Guyon.
