Product Overview
Succinct, yet meaningful; spontaneous, yet profound, the words of the saints—specifically their impromptu conversations with contemporaries—are a rich, but often overlooked, resource for spiritual enlightenment.
An authentic collection of beautiful and inspiring statements, this book delves into the lives and words of 52 saints—from Saint Peter and Saint Polycarp to Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini and Saint Seraphim of Sarov—with an eye for detail and historical accuracy.
Many of these conversations occurred against a backdrop of skepticism and persecution—putting the saint in the difficult position of having to defend the interests of God. However, it is this very atmosphere of disbelief that inspired these messengers of faith to their most telling remarks.
Carefully referenced for those interested in pursuing any of the material further, Conversations of the Saints is an invaluable tool for anyone looking for a new way to find spirituality in the lives and words of the saints.
