A great addition to your daily spiritual readings,
By Daniel Bishop (Jackson, Michigan USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lessons From the Lives of the Saints : A Daily Guide for Growth in Holiness (Paperback)
This is an excellent book for the whole family. The daily readings can be shared at the supper table, or as you put the children to bed. I have found this book to be a great addition to my own daily reading as well.

Not your run of the mill hagiography.,
By Tim Drake "Author and Journalist" (Saint Joseph, Minnesota) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Lessons From the Lives of the Saints : A Daily Guide for Growth in Holiness (Paperback)
This delightful, inspiring book picks up where the popular Butler's Lives of the Saints leaves off.Written to coincide with the Church's liturgical calendar each day provides a concise biography of the Saint and then practical lessons which we can learn from the Saint. This is a fantastic resource for your family's daily reading and prayer time. If this doesn't help you to live a saintly life nothing will.
