John Galten – The Spiritual Direction of St. Claude De La Colombiere on Inside the Pages with Kris McGregor
John Galten and Kris McGregor discuss The Spiritual Direction of St. Claude de la Colombière and St. Claude’s crucial role in the Sacred Heart devotion, through his spiritual guidance of St. Margaret Mary Alacoque. Galten recounts his personal journey to discovering St. Claude and highlights how the saint’s balanced, kind, and firm approach helped St. Margaret Mary persevere amidst resistance. St. Claude’s promotion of the Sacred Heart devotion, particularly through his Jesuit connections, significantly contributed to its global spread. His teachings on trust in God’s providence and the interior life resonate today, offering timeless guidance for deepening one’s spiritual journey.
St. Claude’s prudence, humility, and love for the Eucharist, portrays him as an essential guide for those seeking holiness in a distracted world. Galten draws parallels between the Sacred Heart and Divine Mercy devotions, underscoring their shared message of trust in Christ’s love; in addition to the importance of prayer, the sacraments, and spiritual masters like St. Claude in fostering an interior life, especially in light of St. John Paul II’s call for a new evangelization.

About the Book
“St. Claude, canonized by Pope John Paul II, ranks among the masters of the spiritual life as a director of souls. He gave direction to countless souls, including to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, the great visionary of the Sacred Heart revelations. Jesus told St. Margaret Mary, “Father Claude is my perfect friend and servant. His gift is to lead souls to God.”
St. Claude preached missions and retreats on the Sacred Heart. He was also a clever psychologist who easily read the hearts of other. His sure judgment, aided by grace, enabled him to understand the difficulties of each soul and give the advice most needed for each person. Readers of this spiritual gem will find his insights full of wisdom and inspiration.
His writings cover such important areas of the spiritual life as: Confession, Mass and Holy Communion, Confidence in God, Perfection & Holiness, Peace of Soul, Charity, Education of Children, Spiritual Joy, Prayer, Zeal, and much more.”
