Saintly Souls

The saints weren't perfect. During their lifetime, not all society approved of their actions, beliefs, and alliances. Some did not always ponder the consequences of their initiatives, making serious mistakes in life. They had the same feelings we all experience, running the gambit of heartbreaks, troubles, and triumphs. This book is a selection of some of the most interesting examples, from obscure to prominent. Handpicked from various cultures across the globe, they are historically and religiously mirrors of the past. They are honored by Christian churches worldwide and relate to people everywhere. Their life synopsis is told through short biographies for individual discovery, family learning, and religious instruction. In the paperback edition, each saint's story includes a reproducible activity page and teaching guide.
