This book is a brief compilation of the lives of some of the most influential saints: St John of Kronstadt, St Mark, St Paul, St Peter, St Thomas, Saint Nektarious, Saint Sophia, St Paraskeva just to name a few.
They all shared an unwavering faith and devotion to Christ even in the face of public persecution and incredible sufferings.
Their lives are a great inspiration to all of us in our quest to be more Christ like.

“One must first avoid evil himself and only then concern himself with the benefit of others” Elder Ambrose.

“Holiness is simplicity presented to people in a reasonable manner. Good sense is higher than all virtues.” Saint Nektarious

“…teaching understanding of the transient nature of earthly happiness and the importance of finding solace in prayer.”
