Essential (and easy) reading for busy Catholics, Keep It Simple shows you how to grow closer to God in the things you already do every day, without burdening you with numerous devotions or complicated methods. Author Emmanuel de Gibergues explores the virtue of simplicity that is, having the single intention of pleasing God in all that you do. You ll learn what a difference simplicity can make for you as it did for our Lord and our Lady. You ll come to recognize the signs of true simplicity and find out how to practice simplicity toward God and in your life s activities. Even better, you ll find the secrets of practicing simplicity within yourself a deceptively difficult spiritual discipline that de Gibergues makes easy here.

Don t rush through life without the saving message of these pages!

Why this could be the most important question you ll ever answer; two advantages of simplicity - what you ll gain by clearing your life of complications; how simplicity can make you generous, courageous, and more loving; failure: your attitude toward it may be crippling your spiritual life. Find out how; the most dreaded enemy of your soul s progress - is it keeping you from deepening your happiness and love for God?; two indispensable qualities for beginners in the spiritual life: do you have them?; and much more to help you simplify your life and come closer to God!
