Gorgeous print. I have a statue of her.

She is such a beautiful saint! Especially her 'simple way'. Here's a book you might enjoy. I could not put it down.


What was the early Church like? Contrary to popular belief, Rod Bennett shows there is a reliable way to know. Four ancient Christian writers—four witnesses to early Christianity —left us an extensive body of documentation on this vital subject, and this book brings their fascinating testimony to life for modern believers. With all the power and drama of a gripping novel, this book is a journey of discovery of ancient and beautiful truths through the lives of four great saints of the early Church—Clement of Rome, Ignatius of Antioch, Justin Martyr, and Irenaeus of Lyons.

I read “Four Witnesses” by Rod Bennett.

It was very good and deserves more than just your one single mention.
So I’ll be the second person to recommend it.
