Christ in His Saints
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
In this sequel to Christ in the Psalms, Patrick Henry Reardon examines the lives of almost 150 saints and heroes from the Scriptures—everyone from Abigail to Zephaniah, and Adam to St. John. This well-researched work is a veritable cornucopia of Bible personalities: Old Testament saints, New Testament saints, “Repentant saints,” “Zealous saints,” “Saints under pressure”—they’re all here, and their stories are both fascinating and uplifting. But Christ in His Saints is far more than just a biblical “who’s who.” These men and women represent that ancient family into which, by baptism, all believers have been incorporated. Together they compose that great “cloud of witnesses” cheering us on and inspiring us through word and deed. Christ in His Saints is appropriate for Great Lent or any other time of the year.
