Description:  A nineteenth-century spiritual classic about living wholeheartedly for Christ, so as to have no regrets at life’s end.

Real, practical spiritual wisdom. Living in the Hope of Glory (originally titled Les Adieux, or Farewells) has been blessing readers for almost 150 years. It consists of a series of talks given by Adolphe Monod, a renowned pastor in the Reformed Church of France, as he suffered from terminal cancer. His family and friends met in his bedroom each Sunday during the last six months of his life to partake of the Lord’s Supper and to hear his exhortations.

But this is not a book about dying. It is a book about living consistently, powerfully and joyfully for the Lord, even in the midst of hard times. A week before his death Monod said, “I have a Savior! He has freely saved me through his shed blood. . . . All my righteous acts, all my works that have been praised, all my preaching . . . is in my eyes only filthy rags.” A brief biography of Monod has been added to this edition to acquaint modern readers with this extraordinary man.

"Adolphe Monod was one of the greatest French preachers of the 19th century. Struck with terminal cancer, he presented from his bed a meditation on the last twenty-five Sundays of his life. This has been a French devotional classic since 1856. By virtue of Constance Walker's translation, 'though dead, yet he speaks' English."
--Roger Nicole

“A monument to the grace of God through fellowship with Jesus Christ. Monod’s dying testimony is instructing, enriching, and inspiring. Here, the suffering Christian will find an uplifting companion.”
--Rick Phillips

“It is astonishing that Monod’s Les Adieux are not better known. This courageous French Reformed pastor was both passionate in his care for people and singular in his devotion to God.”
--William Edgar
