Jean-Pierre de Caussade (1675-1751) was born in Toulouse, France, and was ordained a member of the Society of Jesus in 1708. In 1731, he was appointed spiritual director of the Jesuit retreat house in Nancy for the Nuns of the Visitation whom he served for seven years. It is the notes of his addresses to the nuns that form this book. Although Father Caussade was little known during his lifetime, his writings have helped Christians of all backgrounds, and inspired understanding between Eastern and Western religions, in the nearly 300 years since his death in 1751.
