Saints Alive

What could be more inspiring than one of this generation's most widely read devotional writers collaborating with some of history's most enduring spiritual voices? In this fast-moving collection of forty short daily readings, best-selling author Maxie Dunnam draws directly from the time-honored writings of thirteen spiritual leaders-saints of the church by virtue of the depth and timelessness of their profound insights. Readers will be drawn into the reections of well-recognized voices such as Saint Francis of Assisi, John Wesley, and Dietrich Bonhoeffer. He also draws from less familiar names such as Evelyn Underhill, François Fénelon, and Bernard of Clairvaux. The result is a treasury of inspiration as Dunnam deftly curates the choicest and most compelling words of faith that ring true across all generations. This work is designed to be used by individuals who will be challenged, with each of the forty readings, by the reective moments and prayers which focus on the central point of the selected writing. A perfect companion to your morning spiritual discipline, this book will also serve as an introduction to a vast depository of writers and writings unknown to many. Readers will be richly blessed by their time spent in the company of these great fathers and mothers of the faith.
