Saints Alive!: The Faith Proclaimed
Overview
Showing how real people lived the eight beatitudes and seven sacraments, this collection of stories features saints from different eras, continents, and walks of life. Each brief story highlights a particular aspect of—or challenge in—the saint’s life, and connects it to a part of the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Combining the art of dramatic storytelling with biography, Church history, and Catholic teaching, Marie Paul Curley and Mary Lea Hill show us how to live a Christian life through the example of holy—yet relatable—men and women who have lived the gospel. Teachers and students of the faith, as well as individuals who are simply looking for captivating stories to read will find these stories educational and enjoyable. For each saint included in the text, you can find their biographical portrait, along with a prayer, a fact box, notes, and a quote from their writings. A reader’s guide contains personal reflection and group discussion questions, and it directs you to relevant parts of the Bible and the Catechism of the Catholic Church—making it ideal for RCIA teachers and participants, adult faith formation groups, parish book clubs, and independent study.
