paths to his heart

Are you petulant like Peter? Passionate like Mary Magdalene? Prideful and opinionated like Paul? Never fear! They all found their way from vice to virtue, and from sinner to saint. We can do it too, and they show us the way!

​

There are many paths to the Heart of Jesus, and the saints down through the ages give us a plethora of examples and paths. They hail from all corners of the globe, with a variety of personalities and backgrounds. Let's look at some of the lessons we can learn from their temperaments, their stories, and the ups and downs of their real-life stories!

I'm a former journalist, former Catholic bookseller, and lifelong Catholic reader, writer, photographer and traveler who lives and homeschools in a house filled with old Catholic books.

​

"No," I said with a grin. "I'm a saint historian!"
