(1921-2010), does what he does best: Instruct and encourage the serious Catholic to give up the willed venial sins and faults (habits) that prevent the full flowering of the contemplative/mystical life.In the true spirit of Vatican II, Father tells us that we are all called to holiness:"[W]e are all called to saintliness, not something less. ... Yes, the heights of holiness are for you and me, period. No matter what our past may have been ... no matter what state in life or career we are in ... we are all called to be saints. ... (We all have) the universal call to the heights of inner beauty and happiness." (PP. 32,41,42,49)The list of sins Father Dubay mentions too many Christians as not serious about giving up include, "gossiping, lies, laziness, vanity .. overeating, snapping at one another ... (and) linger(ing) on immodest television scenes or media photos." (PP. 47,91,110) Father Thomas tells us that these things prevent (one of the main themes of the book) "intimacy with the Trinity". (PP. 5,37,42,44,52,54,56,59,72,73,74,77,97-99,106,113,118,120) Here's a quote:"Your first duty as pastors is not projects and organizations, but to lead your people to a deep intimacy with the Trinity." -John Paul II to the Austrian bishops (P.5)As usual, Father includes many wonderful anecdotes about saints, holy people, and even historical figures. Some of these include Catherine of Siena, Therese, Bernard, Maximilian Kolbe, Benedict, Dominic, Francis de Sales, Ignatius, Augustine, Aquinas, Newman, the Cure d' Ars, Padre Pio, Chesterton, C.S. Lewis, Mozart, and even Thomas Edison. Among my favorite quotes in the book are:"In Hebrews 10:34 we read of the faithful who for the truth have suffered the griefs and miseries of first century prisons, that they 'happily accepted being stripped of [their] belongings, knowing that [they] owned something that was better and lasting". (P.32)"If a man loves a woman authentically and profoundly (I am not speaking of the media version of love) he would not for a moment entertain the idea of harming her, or of tainting the beauty of her chastity." (P.100)"People who are not living life as it is meant to be lived should expect the painful consequences of their aberrations." (P.77)"The risen Lord in the Mass and in his Real Presence in the tabernacle is, through the Holy Spirit, the source of all life, all saintliness in the Church. Our renewal of the Paschal Mystery at the altar is the summit of each of our days on this earthly pilgrimage." (P.109) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Practical Advice for Ordinary People *by B*** on Reviewed in the United States on May 13, 2006* The title of this book is somewhat misleading. It's really an exhortation to give up venial sins, and a big picture "how-to" manual of how to go about it. Fr. Dubay is mainly speaking to people who have given up serious sin, but still have faults they can't seem to get rid of: overeating, nagging, bad temper, selfishness, laziness are examples he frequently refers to. He tells us this is a common problem, because for most of us it's harder to give up these small bad habits than to steer clear of mortal sin. However, if we are to grow in Christian spirituality and works, we can't ignore our little faults: we must aspire to be saints.To make his point, Fr. Dubay frequently holds up great saints as our role models. One of his favorites is John Vianney, Cure of Ars, who for decades spent up to fourteen hours every day hearing confessions. His deep conversion expressed itself in works of almost unimaginable sacrifice and devotion to God. Is it possible for us to live like that? Fr. Dubay says, yes!While somewhat repetitive, the 120-page text is conversational, plain spoken, and requires no special background or education to understand. The instruction is practical and sound, focusing on how to develop the right frame of mind to give up sin, not on specific habit-changing techniques. This is by design. Fr. Dubay says that there are no quick fixes. Conversion, in his view, requires the "B's"--be concerned, be determined, be commited to prayer, be motivated, be humble, be specific, be perservering.With this attitude, frequent confession, and God's help, we can make enormous progress, to the great benefit of our souls and our human relationships. I found a lot of helpful advice and inspiring words in this book. I think the book helps you turn good intentions into actions. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great little book *by D***I on Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2022* I enjoyed this book which provides essential teaching on prayer and conversion including not just how but why behind it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tw/products/14908502-deep-conversion-deep-prayer](https://www.desertcart.tw/products/14908502-deep-conversion-deep-prayer) --- *Product available on Desertcart Taiwan* *Store origin: TW* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
