How the Saints Shaped History focuses on the essential role of the saints, as vessels of God's grace, in moving the Church (and the world!) through her two-thousand-year history. Written especially for everyday Catholics hungry to learn more about the Faith, this book is both comprehensive and accessible. It tells the story of how more than 180 saints, from Saint Mary Magdalene to Pope Saint John Paul II, led the Church through many crises and back to her spiritual roots.
By helping members and non-members of the Church learn the truths of faith, Archbishop Noll shaped his ministry, his legacy, and the Church.
In this valuable book, Professor Ronald Rychlak paints a vivid picture of the social, political, and religious background against which the papacy of Pius XII took place.
