Description
Be inspired by the Catholic saints like never before in the 10th Anniversary edition of My Life with the Saints by James Martin, SJ. This best-selling memoir of spiritual self-discovery is an homage to the Catholic saints who have accompanied Fr. Martin throughout his life. From his lukewarm childhood Catholicism to the executive fast track at General Electric to the Jesuits and a life dedicated to God, Martin looked and prayed to the Catholic saints to intervene in and guide his life. As this witty, confessional, and surprising account unfolds, discover how the saints of the Catholic Church can help each of us find our way in the world.
