In a time when her church focused on external works, Madame Jeanne Guyon looked into the heart of the matter and found that it's the prayers of the soul that God desires. For daring to teach this to the mass of people "who knew not God in their hearts," she was once imprisoned by her own church leaders for seven years--four of those years in the notorious Bastille in Paris, France.

Autorenporträt
Jeanne Guyon (1648 1717) wrote from the depth of her own spiritual experiences. Growing up in France during the decadent times of Louis XIV, she was devout at an early age, but was then caught up in the worldliness around her. After an arranged marriage at age fifteen, she became increasingly interested in spiritual things; and, for the rest of her life, she continued to seek God diligently, teach others, and write books on Christian devotion. These books have become Christian classics. Guyon paid a heavy price for her views and her writings. Throughout her life, she underwent various trials, including persecution and imprisonment for her beliefs. Her commentary on Song of Songs was used against her and led to her imprisonment.
