Modeled after the French Livre Bleu (Blue Book), this English version is a gem. Its primary purpose is to assist with the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola as given by the famous Fr. Vallet and passed on to The Society of St. Pius X by Fr. Vallet's co-worker, Fr. Barrielle who was, for years, the spiritual director at the SSPX seminary in Econe. Indeed 138 pages of the book is dedicated to the Spiritual Exercises, including the full text of the Exercises of St. Ignatius, plus all the prayers, and hymns needed for a retreat. The rest is a fabulous compendium of prayers, hymns, devotions and doctrine necessary in today's crisis...edited and published by the Canadian District of the Society of St. Pius X. Fine quality paper allows this 500+ page book to be only 3/4 of an inch thick! An excellent companion - everywhere. Chapters include: Daily Prayers and Indulgences, Devotion to the Holy Eucharist (including the entire Ordinary of the Mass), Devotion to the Passion of Our Lord, Devotion to the Sacred Heart, Devotion to the Holy Name of Jesus, Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, Devotion to St. Joseph, Devotion to the Holy Angels, Devotions in Favor of the Souls in Purgatory, Apostolate to the Sick and Dying, Various Prayers, The Monthly Retreat, Short Family Catechism, Hymns and Chants, Devotions for Confession, Spiritual Exercises - Introduction, Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, Professions of Faith and Amendment, Third Order of the Society of St. Pius X, Index. Within these chapters, there is a tremendous wealth information. For example, the chapter on Devotion to the Blessed Sacrament includes a missal. The Chapter on Devotion to the Passion has the Stations of the Cross...On Devotion to Our Lady, the Rosary, etc. There is a wonderful section on devotion for the dying, on monthly retreats and even a short catechism. Third Order members of the Society of St. Pius X will find their entire rule, an examination of conscience, and a short form of Prime and Compline. It is impossible to enumerate here the entire contents of this very special "guide for your soul." But the most unique thing about Christian Warfare - what makes it different from all other prayer books - is that the book is guided by the Spiritual Exercises. It has a unifying element and is not a haphazard collection of every prayer under the sun. Take up this book, take up the banner of the Spiritual Exercises and, in the words of the Psalm, "diverte a malo et fac bonum!" (turn from evil and do good)! Hardcover, foil-stamped, 506 pages.
