&ldquo;The path to sainthood is varied for every individual, but a few common virtues and traits are shared by every saint: holiness, strength, and courage. Join Melanie Rigney for a new perspective on the lives of many well-known saints and an introduction to new spiritual giants to accompany you on your own journey of radical love and faith.&rdquo; &mdash;Lisa M. Hendey, author, <I>I'm a Saint in the Making</I><BR /> <BR /><I>Radical Saints: 21 Women for the 21st Century</I> features twenty-one saints who walked the earth in the twentieth century and were canonized in the twenty-first. Each chapter tells the story of one woman&rsquo;s radical gift and the world in which she lived. You&rsquo;ll also find stories of everyday women who are living these gifts in ways large and small today. <BR /> <BR />&ldquo;Is there anything more radical than loving God with your entire being and loving your neighbor as yourself?&rdquo; Rigney writes. &ldquo;How about loving those who look different from us or who have betrayed us, injured us, or persecuted us simply because we&rsquo;re told God loves them every bit as much as he loves us. Now that&rsquo;s radical.&rdquo;<BR /><BR />Some of the women featured include Jacinta Marto, Elizabeth of the Trinity, Teresa of Calcutta, , Marianne Cope, Mary Mackillop, Gianna Beretta Molla, Katharine Drexel, Josephine Bakhita, and Maria Faustina Kowalska. <BR /><BR />
