Saints are human, and humans complain. A lot. How can we reconcile these facts?
This witty and insightful romp through the lives of the saints explores how the saints used their faults, weaknesses, and complaints as means for growing closer to God. These unvarnished portraits of holy men and women like Saint Jerome (infamous for his acerbic tongue), Saint Thérèse (who struggled with patience), and Saint Damien of Molokai (known for his gruff demeanor) demonstrate how even our raw and unsavory feelings can lead to intimacy with the Lord and put us on the path to holiness.
