    Christ as All in All
    • She came from an unsettled childhood and loveless marriage to her controversial years of ministry in France, Switzerland, and Savoy. What motivated this noblewoman to remain faithful to her unpopular beliefs and to rest joyfully in God's will even in the shadow of dungeon walls? Jeanne Guyon was a woman who understood the cost of "For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain." Her influence has never wavered with the passing of centuries. Her writings have impacted movements such as the Moravians, the Quakers, the Methodists, and the Little Flock. Three hundred years later, she remains one of the most influential figures for those seeking a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. In reading this book, you will notice that Jeanne Guyon presents a more inward, Christ-centered perspective than is usually found in contemporary Christian commentaries. Here is her commentary on the book of Judges as seen from the principles and dynamics of the deeper Christian life.
