The Practice of the Presence of God

The Practice of the Presence of God

Brother Lawrence of the Resurrection, OCD 

Edited by Conrad De Meester, OCD 
Translated by Salvatore Sciurba, OCD 
With a preface by Gerald E. May, Ph.D.

The most complete and accurate English edition of Brother Lawrence's classic work—translated and edited directly from the French critical edition, with spiritual clarity and simplicity that have drawn readers for over three centuries.

Brother Lawrence's central insight is simple: God can be loved and encountered in every moment—in work, in silence, in small tasks, in fatigue, in joy. His teaching has shaped generations of Christians who seek intimacy with God in the ordinary rhythm of daily life.

Few spiritual texts have shaped Christian prayer as profoundly as The Practice of the Presence of God. Brother Lawrence, a humble Discalced Carmelite lay brother from the seventeenth century, didn't compose any books during his life—only letters, spiritual maxims, and recollections preserved by those who knew him. This edition definitively collects everything that has been scholarly attributed to him and presents the complete Brother Lawrence as we have him today.

The ICS Publications edition represents the full integrity of the text without abridgement and returns to the earliest French manuscripts known. The result is the most reliable, readable, and complete version available in English, and includes:

  • The complete Spiritual Maxims;
  • All surviving letters of Brother Lawrence;
  • The complete Conversations and other biographical recollections;
  • Historical notes clarifying context, authorship, and later textual variants;
  • A fresh, accurate translation that preserves Brother Lawrence's simplicity without smoothing away his Catholic identity.

 

  • ICS code: ICS-BL
  • Format: paperback
  • Pages: 260
  • ISBN: 978-0-935216-21-9
