About this book

Madame Guyon (1648-1717), also known as Jeanne Guyon, was a Christian mystic and prayer warrior, who believed that one's life with Christ should be centered in constant prayer. She was imprisoned because of her views for at least seven years. During this time, and throughout her life she wrote a number of books, letters and poetry. This work hand selects a number of her previously published poems that celebrate her Christian experience, devotion to Christ, and mysticism. It also includes original material by the publisher. This includes an Introduction, a Foreword on 'Mysticism. Mystics,and the Christian Experience' and a brief biographical account of Madame Guyon as annotated content that helps readers to understand and honor this outstanding woman of the Christian faith.
