We shall not all fall asleep, but we will all be changed, in an instant, in the blink of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 1 Corinthians 15:51-52
A desire to reach that place must become a passion, challenged by twists and turns that the journey will take. Whether for many years or a few months, we have already been traveling along the road to holiness. Perhaps the time has come to see how far we have advanced and how far we might still have to go. from the Prologue
Father Zachary focuses on our individual journey in seeking intimacy with Jesus. However, he never separates Jesus from his church as the instrument and sacrament of salvation, or indeed from Mary as the Mother of the church.... Holiness is indispensable for the renewal and healing of the church in our day, as it has been in every age. from the Foreword by Archbishop Seán Patrick O Malley, O.F.M. Cap.
Zachary Grant wrote Until the Trumpet Sounds: Seeking Holiness Now for those who are serious about their relationship with God...about becoming holy. Seeking holiness is not an easy undertaking. There are no shortcuts, and sanctity does not just happen. Father Grant knows that achieving holiness is not a task for the faint of heart, but he assures us that all people, whether currently lost or actively seeking God, possess the strength and desire to know God now. All that is needed is the dedication and determination to follow through the arduous and often lonely road to holiness.
Zachary Grant purports that our Christian destiny is to become saints and it is within all of our reach, even today. Through his careful reflections, introspections, examples of others paths to holiness, as well as his own, Grant outlines a plan of holiness, which we all can follow to achieve holiness. We are all capable of change, even those who seem the least bit saintly.
