Here you’ll find real men and women facing very real sufferings: addiction, illness, grief, divorce, disability, unemployment, loneliness, poverty, and discrimination.

By using the saints’ own words as often as possible, Vincent J. O’Malley, CM, discloses the seldom-discussed temptations, failures, and sorrows of more than one hundred saints.

These extraordinary men and women became saints despite the suffering in their lives. By their response to sorrow and suffering, they grew profoundly more human and more Christ-like.

Let their stories heal the wounds in your life and encourage you to allow God’s love to transform your suffering into the eternal triumph of the saints.
