Control Your Unruly Passions

Do you commit the
same sins over and over?

 
Can you say no to yourself — 
and yes to God?

 
Are you ready to cultivate
the fire of holiness in your soul?

 
 
*           *            * 
 

All too often, even our most strenuous
efforts to follow Christ end in frustration. 


In this spiritual classic, Fr. Basil Maturin
offers simple, practical advice that will
enable you to conquer your sins and
live a life focused on God.



 Patrick Madrid
said this book is "essential reading
for anyone who wants to overcome sin."
 
 

 

Fr. Maturin insists that no matter how
hard you’re trying, you can have a better
relationship with God and greater self-mastery.

But to do so, you must first get your
passions in check and come to understand your
own motives, desires, and fears.

In these pages, you'll discover
the simple steps you must take now to
develop the self-discipline needed to
truly live a life for God.


Start today on the way to true
self-mastery as you learn:

 

  • The mistake many people make when trying to rid themselves of evil thoughts: are you falling into this trap too?
     
  • Self-discipline: how it will restore your soul to its full power. Three things you must have in order to gain this power.
     
  • Self-knowledge: why it involves so much more than its contemporary counterfeit, self-analysis.
     
  • Two ways to avoid self-deception when you look at yourself (caution: you’ll probably be surprised at who you really are!)
     
  • Why self-control and self-denial are not morbid and gloomy, but hopeful and even joyful — when undertaken properly.
     
  • Love: the holy school that will purify and ennoble yours — and help you steer clear of prevalent modern counterfeits.
     
  • And more that will show you the value of self-mastery — and give you solid directions for attaining it!

Here is a complete guide to mature, responsible, even noble behavior in our complex modern society. Written in the 1930s by a wise Jesuit priest and steeped in the wisdom of the ages, these pages teach the timeless principles that have led countless souls to true success and lasting happiness.
 
Here is a good man’s canny advice on how to deal with the practical problems faced by all those who strive to live their lives nobly and well.
 
Learn how to discipline your imagination so it won’t lead you astray; how to tell the critical difference between pleasure and happiness; and how to strengthen your will to ensure that you always choose the good.
 
Without condescension, Fr. Garesché shows how to maintain a healthy mind, resist temptations, grow temperate, practice fortitude, think kindly of others, and choose worthwhile amusements. He even explains how to accept criticism graciously and how to develop the kind of confidence that is not rooted in pride, but is the necessary foundation for any life that will be productive and holy. Once you assimilate the wisdom here, you’ll know how to find genuine success — the success that transcends money, fame, and pleasure.
