"Francis, go and build up my house, which thou seest, is falling into ruin."

To fulfill this command of Our Lord, St. Francis of Assisi (1181-1226) began by restoring physical churches and continued by building up the spiritual church in souls.

Francis' humility, purity, and true joy inspired many to conversion and a deeper faith. Never ordained a priest, St. Francis, nonetheless, was a preacher and a miracle worker of the first order - curing, prophesying, casting out devils, turning water into wine, and raising people from the dead.

The Life of St Francis of Assisi by St. Bonaventure conveys a picture of the saint that renders an indelible impression of a man totally transformed by God.

A delightful collection of anecdotes of the saint's life narrated in a humble and child-like fashion. It is how I imagine St. Francis would have expressed himself. Covering anecdotes with friars, animals, and post-death miracles and apparitions.
Saint Francis pray for us.

I found the narrator presenter hard to hold my attention. I felt his tone degrading.
