Description
John’s Homilies on Saints & Feast Days: Karl Stern, a Jewish convert to Catholicism, said, “Christ always has the appropriate answers, and He gives them in His saints.” Christ our Lord continues to write His messages to us through the lives of saints. When we, because of our depraved nature, neglect the Bible and thus refuse to be guided by its light, He communicates to us through the lives of His servants – the saints.
In John’s Homilies on Saints & Feast Days, their lives not only instruct us, but, also, invite us to transform all our works into praise of God. From the reading of the lives of saints we must be encouraged to desist from sinning and be assisted in improving our goodness by the grace of God. The lives of saints must prod us to ask, as St. Augustine asked, “When he and she could do, why can’t I?”
These homilies on the lives of principal saints and feast days are the humble effort of the author to illustrate the power of Jesus Christ manifested gloriously in the lives of His saints. It is an effort to show how gloriously Jesus can mold and transform our frail and fickle nature when we humbly surrender ourselves into His hands. May the reading of these homilies lead you towards Him, who is the Way, the Truth and the Life.
