Great Saints
"In his highly praised work, Protestant theologian and author Walter Nigg describes the life and work of eleven saints, illustrating how they too had to struggle against dark forces within, a struggle that they by no means always won: St. Francis of Assisi, Joan of Arc, St. Nicholas von Flue, St. Catherine of Genoa, St. Teresa of Avila, St. John of the Cross, St. Francis de Sales, St. Joseph of Copertino, Gerhard Testeegen, St. John Vianney (cure of Ars), St. Therese of Lisieux.

Our homage to freedom is a mockery, for the blinding glare of riches and power have made of democracy an illusion. The consequence is life without social and economic justice and a false view-we are chained to monetary acquisitiveness, group identities, and other limited perspectives. Power and influence coupled with technology, bureaucracy, and greed have masked accumulated wisdom-the bedrock of individual integrity. Even social injustice masked as property rights takes on a look of integrity, liberty, and prosperity. At the root of our problems is the relation of man to the land and his mental and physical separation from it. The most endurable structure would be built upon the Fatherhood ...
