Rate this book
La Editorial San Pablo España, Presenta: El Audi, filia, además de ser una obra espiritual preciosa de nuestro Siglo de Oro, es el único libro en el que san Juan de Avila expone de forma orgánica las líneas esenciales de su doctrina espiritual.

A lo largo de sus páginas, el cristiano es guiado en el proceso de su vida espiritual, que san Juan describe como un recorrido que va desde la configuración del viejo Adán, que recibimos en nuestro nacimiento, hasta la identificación con Cristo, el nuevo Adán. En la presente edición, obra de Antonio Granado Bellido, se ha modernizado el lenguaje, respetando el contenido de lo que san Juan de Avila quiso transmitir a sus lectores, con la intención de facilitar su lectura.

This book, written by a 16th century Spanish priest, is addressed to a young girl seeking to strengthen her faith. The writer takes the Psalm beginning "Listen O Daughter" for his text, and uses the verses to discuss the major aspects of the spiritual life. I found his insights profound, and strikingly relevant to the present day. The book is less a commentary on the Psalm, however, and more a jumping off point for his discussion.

This is a fine book by the 16th century saint. It takes you from A to Z in building a stronger faith, and relying on God.

Es un libro imprescindible en cada casa. Como el tener la Biblia y el Catecismo.
