von Paul Burns

648 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A new edition of the Concise Butler.If the saints and blessed collected here share one overarching characteristic, it is to have put their love of God to work for their fellow men and women through their chosen way of life.Time and again they say and show that faith and hope have to find expression in love for other people, especially for those most despised and neglected by the world. That is the message of those presented here, one needed more than ever today.Drawn from the original twelve volume work known as Butler's Lives of the Saints, this new edition has selected one principal saint as the focus of attention for each day of the calendar year.And now, for the first time, many saints have been included who were canonised during the Pontificate of Pope John Paul II.
