About this listen

Angels and saints. Catholics tend to think of them as different from the rest of us. They're cast in plaster or simpering on a holy card, performing miracles with superhero strength, or playing a harp in highest heaven.

Yet they are very near to us in every way. In this lively audiobook, Scott Hahn dispels the false notions and urban legends people use to keep the saints at a safe distance. The truth is that Jesus Christ has united heaven and earth in a close communion. Drawing deeply from Scripture, Dr. Hahn shows that the hosts of heaven surround the earthly Church as a "great cloud of witnesses". The martyrs cry out from heaven's altar begging for justice on the earth. The prayers of the saints and angels rise to God, in the Book of Revelation, like the sweet aroma of incense.

Dr. Hahn tells the stories of several saints (and several angels too) in a way that's fresh and new. The saints are spiritual giants but with flesh-and-blood reality. They have strong, holy ambitions - and powerful temptations and opposition that must be overcome. Their stories are amazing and yet familiar enough to motivate us to live more beautiful lives. In this telling of their story, the saints are neither otherworldly nor this-worldly. They exemplify the integrated life that every Christian is called to live.

Still, their lives are as different from one another as human lives can be. Dr. Hahn shows the heavenly Church in all its kaleidoscopic diversity - from Moses to Mary, Augustine to Therese, and the first century to the last century.

Only saints will live in heaven. We need to be more like the saints if we want to live in heaven someday. Dr. Hahn shows us that our heavenly life can begin now.

It must.

Made clear a lot of misconceptions

Scott Hahn’s is a wonderful narrator. He keeps you wanting to know more about the subject. I would recommend this to those of the Protestant faith, Catholics just retuning to the faith of their youth, all converts to Catholicism. Even those that have been practicing Catholics for years. We should never assume we already know that subject!

A Believer

I read Hail Holy Queen and it was a meaty theological thought book but his audio books are awesome. While I do believe in much of what Catholics do I do for all denominations and even though I disagree on some points with him the pros are so much better and he is one of the few authors whose voice I actually like!

Inspiring and Informative.

Dr. Hahn uses everyday language to help educate and guide our spiritual growth. his calming voice reassures us that we are not alone and our mistakes are merely stumbling blocks on our quest to sainthood in our every day lives.

Wonderfully composed

As always, this Scott Hahn book is very well structured and read. Of course I would have wanted him to mention the life stories of a couple of my favorite saints. But who he chose was perfect for the message of the book: we are a sister/brotherhood among the saints. I will definitely read this one again!

Another home run from Mr. Hahn

Such a great author, informative and eloquent. I look forward to listening to his next book. I'm always pleased when I can look back at scripture from his references. Great work
