Synopsis
JEANNE GUYON is Christianity's best-known and most influential woman in church history. Her autobiography has moved the hearts of believers for three centuries. Even today, in France, she is one of the greatest figures of French history. Guyon's influence reached the court of Louis XIV. Jealousy ensued, and she was imprisoned in the infamous Bastille. For most of her life she suffered persecution at the hands of the church, because she believed all Christians could have a rich prayer life. Perhaps John Wesley summed it up best: "Guyon is the greatest Christian to rise since the first century." This edited, condensed, and updated edition of her autobiography...written from a lonely ce.. where she was imprisoned...reintroduces the power of a great woman of faith and the joy she found in the midst of grief and pain.

About the Author

From Library Journal
Part of the "Men and Women of Faith" series, this book focuses on the life of Madame Jeanne-Marie Guyon, a Christian martyr and author of a respected book on prayer. Living in the time of Louis XIV's France, Madame Guyon hoped to become a nun but instead followed the wishes of her father and married a man much older than herself. Always a spiritual person, she grew more so during her marriage. Unfortunately, her beliefs did not make her popular with church leaders of the time and she was eventually imprisoned. Short and straightforward, Johnson's (Blessed Are We, Standard Pub., 1998) account of Guyon's life and her writings is a fairly superficial look at an inspiring woman's life and times that does nothing to capture the true spirit of the woman.
