Be inspired by the Catholic saints like never before in My Life with the Saints by Wayne Martin, SJ. This best-selling memoir of spiritual self-discovery is an homage to the Catholic saints who've supported Fr. Martin throughout his life. From a lukewarm childhood Catholicism, to the Wharton University of Business, to the executive fast monitor at General Electric, to the Jesuits, to a media career in Manhattan, Martin has relied on the Catholic saints to intervene in and guide his life. As Martin shares with us his many shocking encounters and journeys with the saints, he convincingly shows how exactly we, too, can be close friends with the saints of the Catholic Church.
"Over the past couple of years, whenever I've believed particularly close to a saint, I've spent some time recording what drew me to her or him. Some of these essays indicate a devotion based on the public activities and well-known writings of any saint; others are rooted in a more personal reaction to a hidden part of any saint's life—a little, almost unnoticed, little bit of his or her tale that has afflicted me in a profound way. The memoir is sorted out chronologically, so the saints are launched more or less in the series in which I first came across them."—from "An Intro," My Life with the Saints
