The Imitation of Christ is a Christian devotional book by Thomas a Kempis, first composed in Medieval Latin. It is a handbook for spiritual life arising from the Devotio Moderna movement, of which Kempis was a member. The Imitation is perhaps the most widely read Christian devotional work next to the Bible, and is regarded as a devotional and religious classic.

This classic of Christian devotional literature has brought understanding and comfort to millions for centuries. Both Protestants and Catholics - as well as mystics and historians of religious thought - have studied these meditations on the life and teachings of Jesus, finding in them a path to prayer and spiritual guidance.

Written in a candid and conversational style, The Imitation of Christ discusses liberation from worldly inclinations, recollection as a preparation for prayer, the consolations of prayer, and the place of eucharistic communion in a devout life. With its simple, readable text, this translation will appeal to new readers as well as to those already familiar with this religious classic.
