*Advance Praise & Reviews* * Catholic Media Association - Honorable Mention / Newly Canonized Saints * "In this timely, accessible book, James Bacik illuminates the hidden corners of holiness that we often fail to see. By exploring those towering models of sanctity already recognized by the church alongside everyday saints that walk among us, Bacik offers a powerful reflection on faith, hope and the extraordinary found in the seemingly ordinary."
--John Gehring, author, The Francis Effect Inspired by Pope Francis's Apostolic Exhortation, "On the Call to Holiness in Today's World," a priest and pastor shows how personal witness makes the claims of the gospel real and attractive.
Following the structure of Francis's document, Saints Celebrated and Unsung includes two stories in each chapter--one, a celebrated saint, like Saints Augustine and Thérèse of Lisieux; the other, an "unsung saint" who models a particular kind of holiness for us today.
