Sodality Director's Manual (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a guide for living a Christian life for those who seek to fortify their good habits and overcome obstacles. It begins by defining a confraternity as a pious association formed for the purpose of helping its members follow God's teachings, providing examples of such organizations throughout history, and citing the blessings promised to their members. The author then emphasizes the advantages of joining a sodality, including: protection from vice, a pledge of honorable and happy life, solid piety, wise choices for one's life path, the sanctification of one's state, numerous indulgences, and access to spiritual blessings. After laying out the benefits, the author turns his attention to the duties required of sodalists, beginning with the observance of the rules of the confraternity, which the author insists are not onerous but rather form the basis for the sodality's life and prosperity. Beyond the rules, exemplarity and fidelity to the sodality are required. The author suggests that the act of consecration is an engagement of honor that compels one to show love for Mary and to avoid any actions that would offend her. The author concludes by outlining the elements of happiness that the faithful sodalist enjoys, among them the sweetness of piety, the tranquility of a good conscience, the satisfaction of accomplished duty, and the pledge of a peaceful death. The author maintains that the Christian life on Earth is a preparation for glory in Heaven and that Jesus Christ is the model for and the key to living a Christian life. This book offers a strong foundation for understanding the Christian life and will appeal to those who desire to reinforce their commitment to living a life of virtue.
