Saints

From Polycarp to St. Francis, Benedict to Aidan, Brigid to Clare–and many others in between–Saints shares the stories of heroism, adventure, servanthood, and humility that define the lives of some of history's most-cherished saints. Through rich reverence and engaging narrative, Scot Bower uncovers the personalities of the Western and Eastern saints from the time of the Early Church Fathers to the mid-thirteenth century.

Complete with prayers, feature boxes, and striking illustrations by Linda Baker Smith, this unique collection of saints brings devoted men and women of the past to new life, offering insight into how their dedication to faith, contemplation, stability, compassion, and reconciliation have place in today's ever-busy world. It is a book that will inspire and delight, to be pored over and returned to again and again.
