Item description for My Life With the Saints by James Martin & ...
Overview Be inspired by the Catholic Saints like never before. This best-selling memoir of spiritual self-discovery is an homage to the Catholic saints who have accompanied Fr. Martin throughout his life. From a lukewarm childhood Catholicism, to the Wharton School of Business, to the executive fast track at General Electric, to the Jesuits, to a media career in Manhatten, Martin has relied on the Catholic saints to intervene in and guide his life. As Martin shares with us his many surprising encounters and journeys with the saints, he convincingly shows how we, too, can be close friends with the saints of the Catholic Church.
Publishers Description Winner of the Prestigious Christopher Award Be inspired by the Catholic saints like never before in "My Life with the Saints" by James Martin, SJ. This best-selling memoir of spiritual self-discovery is an homage to the Catholic saints who have accompanied Fr. Martin throughout his life. From a lukewarm childhood Catholicism, to the Wharton School of Business, to the executive fast track at General Electric, to the Jesuits, to a media career in Manhattan, Martin has relied on the Catholic saints to intervene in and guide his life. As Martin shares with us his many surprising encounters and journeys with the saints, he convincingly shows how we, too, can be close friends with the saints of the Catholic Church. "Over the past few years, whenever I've felt particularly close to a saint, I've spent some time writing down what drew me to him or her. Some of these essays reflect a devotion based on the public actions and well-known writings of a saint; others are rooted in a more personal response to a hidden part of a saint's life--a small, almost unnoticed, piece of his or her story that has affected me in a deep way. The memoir is organized chronologically, so that the saints are introduced more or less in the sequence in which I first encountered them."--from "An Introduction," "My Life with the Saints" Unabridged audiobook Ten compact discs / 13 hours (approx.) |

Reviews - What do customers think about My Life With the Saints?
 | My Life With the Saints Dec 9, 2009 |
| The minute I read the introduction I fell in love with this book, not to mention the authors style of writing. This has been such a wonderful way to get to know the saints and how their lives came into play in Fr. Martin's life. His writing is so down-to-earth, not to mention humorous in parts. All in all this is such an enjoyable read. I am so happy to have had it recommended by Fr. Tom. I don't want it to come to the end. Hoping to find something else written by him very soon. | | |  | "My Life With The Saints" is readable and accessible Nov 7, 2009 |
| Despite some that think this is a book of lives of the saints, it's actually a memoir of one man's evolving spiritual life as reflected in his relationships and devotions to various saints. The book is very readable, open and accessible - no theological heavy-lifting although depths are alluded to. Refreshingly, the book is almost 100% free of religious politics. A very enjoyable read and a good introduction to the saints, Catholic devotion, and the spiritual formation of a Catholic and a priest. I highly recommend the book. | | |  | Jubilee Present Sep 9, 2009 |
| Once I told the seller the book was for a nun celebrating her 50th Jubilee and needed it in a couple days she did a masterful job of communicating with me that she had done all she could to ensure it would arrive on time. Great job. Highly recommend the seller. | | |  | My life with the Saints By Fr. James Martin, sj Sep 1, 2009 |
| Fr. Martin's memoir is inspiring and very compelling. I read every page of that book and if you read it I promise you will laugh! | | |  | TRULY A SPECIAL JOURNEY May 22, 2009 |
I am not a big fan of long drawn out reviews. You will see your own life through that of the saints and the journeys of Fr. Martin. Truly an amazing book with great insights and the recommended reading is solid. Best 12$ you'll spend on a book. I laughed, cried and everything in between. | | | Write your own review about My Life With the Saints
