The Saints’ Guide series. The saints have said wonderful things about every aspect of the Christian life, but much of their writing is inaccessible. To meet this need, Charis books presents an exciting new series of Saints’ Guides. In these books, readers will find helpful and inspiring teaching taken directly from the saints’ own works. Compiled by experienced writers and editors, each book presents the wisdom of a wide variety of saints on such topics as prayer, suffering, forgiveness and other subjects of importance to us. For people who want to hear from the saints, the Saints’ Guides are the ideal place to start. The book gathers stories from the lives of saints and selections from their writing about every aspect of suffering.
