A nun? A mystic? A female Martin Luther? Who was this noble Frenchwoman whom her contemporaries harassed, imprisoned, and finally condemned as a heretic? Why were her writings so powerful that they shook the entire country and touched even the scandalous court of King Louis XIV? Thrill to this biographical account of Madame Jeanne Guyon (1648-1717), from her unsettled childhood and loveless marriage to her controversial years of ministry in France, Switzerland and Savoy. What was it that motivated this noblewoman, keeping her faithful to her unpopular beliefs and causing her to rest joyfully in God’s will ? even in the shadow of dungeon walls? Read this inspiring drama of a woman who understood the cost of the words: For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
