Little Lessons from the Saints: 52 Simple and Surprising Ways to See the Saint in You

by Bob Burnham

52 glimpses into the gifts (charisms) of the saints offer quick lessons that can easily be applied to our own lives, helping us become saints ourselves.

My Review:

This great little book packs a holy punch! Bob Burnham does a great job to help us live every day (or week) with the saints! It is through their holy example that we ourselves become strenghtened to imitate them. In the beginning of this book, the author gives important advice: Don't rush through the book. Take your time to reflect upon and to meditate on each saint. There are important lessons to be learned here, and if you just zip through it, you'll definitely miss out on what the author tried to do with this book. I'm very happy (as a lay Passionist), that Saint Maria Goretti has been included as well.

I recommend this book for all Catholics who need some reflective time with the saints (that would be all of us!).
