These icons of the Christian faith include not only bishops and scholars but also housewives, poets, novelists, and teachers. Each biography included here contains a brief sketch of its subject's thought, a selection of short, representative quotations from their published writings, and a series of questions prompting reflection on their work's continuing value today.
Written in a lively style that brings readers into direct contact with some of the church's most admired witnesses, Glorious Companions will be valued both as a collection of insightful biographical information and as a lasting source of inspiration.
