26 Steps with the Saints: Examining the Lives of the Holy Ones (The Safe Haven: Scriptural Reflections for the Heart and Home)

The derivative of the word “saint” comes from the Latin, “sanctus,” which is translated: “holy one.” Therefore, this group of holy ones whom we call “saints” includes the canonized in heaven…but as baptized Christians seeking holiness, it includes us too!

26 Steps with the Saints: Examining the Lives of the Holy Ones will offer us a deeper look into the lessons in virtue which the saints have to offer us, that we might apply their transformative insights to our own lives. May we, the Church on earth, work daily to grow in holiness by studying and following the example of our Church family in heaven. By the grace of God, we too can become the saints we were created to be.
