Since it was first published in its pocket-size 1692 edition, Brother Lawrence's spiritual classic has remained in print, beloved by people of varying spiritual paths and religious traditions. With this new translation, award-winning translator Carmen Acevedo Butcher frees it from its centuries-long prison of dogmatic, binary language and brings fresh, inclusive treatment that listeners are sure to find transformational. Brother Lawrence's years as a humble kitchen worker at a monastery, often remaining in the shadows of his community, gave way to a spiritual life that was profound. Poor, living with a disability, lacking a formal education, enduring a time of plague and civil unrest, he found God in the depths of his soul, experiencing God's loving presence throughout the day. His personal struggles and life-tested spiritual wisdom will resonate with contemporary listeners as he invites us into a practice of Presence that is both accessible and deeply transformative.

For the first time, Brother Lawrence's work is translated by Carmen Acevedo Butcher, a woman of color and a renowned scholar of medieval texts, who creates a dynamic, faithful translation for a new generation of listeners.

I only got a little way into the introduction, so I really can’t comment on the book overall. I am actually eager to hear or read Brother Lawerence, but can’t bear to listen to any more of the narrator’s voice.

Unbearable narration

In an attempt to appear more modern and "inclusive," the author changes God's pronouns from he/him to they/them. This alteration may confuse many readers, as it could mistakenly suggest that Brother Lawrence held a pluralistic view of God. Complete fail.
